When rolling a fair 6-sided die, the probability of rolling a 6 on any single roll is \( \frac{1}{6} \). Since Anthony rolls the die 18 times, we can use the expected value to predict the number of times he will roll a 6.
The expected number of times to roll a 6 can be calculated as follows:
\[
\text{Expected number of 6s} = \text{Number of rolls} \times \text{Probability of rolling a 6}
\]
\[
\text{Expected number of 6s} = 18 \times \frac{1}{6} = 3
\]
Thus, we would predict that Anthony will roll a 6 approximately **3 times**.
