John is about to roll a six-sided, fair number cube 60 times. He wants to predict how many times the cube will land on an even number. He makes a prediction of 20 times. Is it a good prediction? What would your prediction be based on theoretical probability?

Answer 1

half of the numbers on the cube are even

so a fair cube should have half of the outcomes even

Answer 2

Answer: A number cube has 3 even numbers. Each even number has a theoretical probability of 1/6. In 60 rolls, an even number could come up ten times. Since there are 3 even numbers, the total predicted value is 30. So 20 is a low prediction.

Answer 3

thank you

Answer 4

A number cube has 3 even numbers. Each even number has a theoretical probability of 1/6. In 60 rolls, an even number could come up ten times. Since there are 3 even numbers, the total predicted value is 30. So 20 is a low prediction.
