Question

A die was rolled 100 times and the number of time 6 came up was noted. If the experimental probability calculated from this information is 2/3, then how many times 6 came up? Justify your answer.

Answer 1

Answer:

200/3 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, total number of trials = 100

Let x be the number of times occurring 6.  

We know, Probability of an event = Frequency of the event occurring / Total number of trials  

⇒ x / 100 = 2 / 3 [∵ Probability is given]

⇒  x = 200/3

Answer 2

Answer:

total number of trials = 100

Let x be the number of times occurring 6.

Probability of an ever = Frequency of the event occurring / Total number of trials

⇒ $\frac{x}{100}=\frac{2}{3}$        [∵ Probability is given]

⇒  x =$\frac{200}{3}$
