Question

A number cube is rolled with these results: 60 ones, 62 twos, 59 threes, 64 fours, 63 fives, and 75 sixes. What is the experimental probability of rolling an even number? Write your answer as a percent, to the nearest tenth of a percent.

Answer 1

52.5% ( gradpoint)

Explanation:

Answer 2

Add all the quantities to find the total number of rolls:

60 +62 + 59 + 64 + 63 + 75 = 383

Now add the number of even numbered:

2 = 62

4 = 64

6 = 75

Total of even numbered rolls: 62 + 64 + 75 = 201

Divide the number of even rolls by the total number of rolls:

201 / 383 = 0.5248

Convert to a percent by multiplying by 100:

0.5248 x 100 = 52.48%

Rounded to nearest tenth = 52.5%
