Marco has two number cubes. The faces of each number cube are numbered from 1 to 6. Marco rolled the number cubes and recorded the number showing on the top face of each number cube. The results are shown in the table.



4, 2 5, 2 3, 1 3, 4 2, 6
1, 1 4, 2 2, 3 3, 3 5, 1
1, 5 5, 2 1, 5 1, 2 1, 5
2, 4 4, 2 2, 4 5, 3 2, 4


Based on these results, what is the experimental probability that the next time the number cubes are rolled, they will land with a 2 showing on the top face of one number cube and a 4 showing on the top face of the other number cube?

A.
3
10

B.
9
20

C.

Sagot :

Using it's concept, it is found that the probability that the next trial will result in a 2 and 4 is given by:

A. [tex]\frac{3}{10}[/tex].

What is a probability?

A probability is given by the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In an experimental probability, the number of outcomes are taken from previous trials.

In this problem, the table states that of 20 trials, 6 resulted in either (2,4) or (4,2), hence the probability is given by:

p = 6/20 = 3/10.

Which means that option A is correct.
