Toss two dice. Predict how many times in 180 tosses a 5 will appear on both dice.

Answer 1

When two dice are rolled, the probability of getting a 5 on each of them is 1/6.

The probability of getting a 5 on both dice in a single toss is the product of the individual probabilities, which is (1/6) * (1/6) = 1/36.

Now, out of 180 tosses, the expected number of times a 5 will appear on both dice is found by multiplying the probability of getting a 5 on both dice in a single toss by the number of tosses:
(1/36) * 180 = 5

Therefore, we can predict that a 5 will appear on both dice around 5 times in 180 tosses.

Answer 2

3/8 x 3/8

Answer 3

To calculate the product of two fractions, we simply multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.

So, (3/8) x (3/8) = (3 x 3) / (8 x 8) = 9 / 64.

Therefore, the product of 3/8 and 3/8 is 9/64.
