Question

A die is tossed 24 times and lands on 1 three times. What is the experimental probability of landing on a 1? (written as a simplified fraction)

Answer 1

1/8

Explanation:

We know that a die has 6 faces and that its real probability would then be 1/6, but in this case an experiment is done where 24 times the die is thrown and 3 times it is 1.

Therefore the experimental probability would be:

3/24, if we simplify, we have: 1/8

Therefore this would be the experimental probability that the die falls into 1.
