A number cube is rolled 150 times. The number 3 comes up 43 times. What is the experimental probability of rolling a 3? What is the theoretical probability of rolling a 3?

Experimental probability = number of times event occurred / total number of trials
= 43 / 150
= 0.287 or 28.7%

Theoretical probability of rolling a 3 on a number cube is 1/6 or 0.167 or approximately 16.7%.
