If the die were to be rolled 6000 times, would we expect to obtain exactly 1000 '2's? explain your answer.

The probability of that occurring is 0%. There are 6 sides in a typical dice, which means the probability of rolling a 2 is 1/6th. (1/6)^1000 will give you the probability of rolling a 2 exactly 1000 times. (1/6)^1000 equates to 0%.
