You roll a number cube numbered one to six 12 times. P(5)=2/3. What type of probability is illustrated and why?
A. Experimental; The result is based on the number of possible outcomes.
B. Experimental; The result is found by repeating an Experiment.
C. Theoretical; The result is based on the number of possible outcomes.
D. Theoretical; The result is found by repeating an Experiment.
My answer is A or D. I am a bit confused. I think that it could be either. Please help.

It cannot be both experimental and theoretical. An experimental probability shows the result of an actual experiment.
