To calculate the experimental probability of landing on a 3 when a six-sided number cube is rolled, you can use the formula:

\[ \text{Experimental Probability} = \frac{\text{Number of times the event occurs}}{\text{Total number of trials}} \]

In this case, the number of times the cube landed on 3 is 10, and the total number of rolls is 30.

So, the experimental probability of landing on a 3 is:

\[ \text{Experimental Probability} = \frac{10}{30} \]

To simplify this fraction:

\[ \frac{10}{30} = \frac{1}{3} \]

Thus, the experimental probability of landing on a 3 is:

\(\frac{1}{3}\)
