Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A number cube labeled 1 to 6 is rolled 450 times. Which is the best prediction for the number of times that the number cube will land on a number less than 3?
A
about 150 times
B
exactly 150 times
C
about 225 times
D
about 225 times
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -To find out how many times a cube will land a number less than 3 out of 450 times, we need to find the expected value. Hence, the best prediction for the number of times a cube will land on a number less than 3 is 150.

Detailed explanation-2: -The answer is 5:6. The theoretical probability of rolling a number less than 6 on a number cube is 5:6.

Detailed explanation-3: -A number cube is rolled three times. An outcome is represented by a string of the sort OEE (meaning an odd number on the first roll, an even number on the second roll, and an even number on the third roll). The 8 outcomes are listed in the table below. Note that each outcome has the same probability.

Detailed explanation-4: -Explanation: For each number, there is a 16 probability of rolling it (so 16 for the 1 and also 16 for the 4).
