Calculate the experimental probability of landing on a 3. Remember to enter the answer as a simplified fraction.

P(3) =

Answer 1

To calculate the experimental probability of landing on a 3, you can use the formula:

\[
P(3) = \frac{\text{Number of times a 3 was rolled}}{\text{Total number of rolls}}
\]

In this case, the number of times a 3 was rolled is 10, and the total number of rolls is 30. Thus:

\[
P(3) = \frac{10}{30}
\]

Now, simplify the fraction:

\[
P(3) = \frac{1}{3}
\]

So the experimental probability of landing on a 3 is:

\[
P(3) = \frac{1}{3}
\]
