Problem

Question 16 Rita throws a fair 6-sided die 300 times. Approximately how many times would you expect her to throw an odd number? About 150 About 300

Solution

Step 1 :There are 300 rolls of the die, and each roll has a probability of \(\frac{1}{2}\) of being odd.

Step 2 :We can find the expected number of odd rolls by multiplying the total number of rolls by the probability of a roll being odd: \(300 \times \frac{1}{2}\).

Step 3 :Calculating the expected number of odd rolls: \(300 \times \frac{1}{2} = \boxed{150}\)
