All right sy Mash members Another question for you Hakim

00:05

rolled a standard six sided die three thousand times which

00:19

different faces numbered from one to six Like that that's

00:22

a standard die the probability of rolling each faces the

00:40

of time Well the results should match the probabilities One

00:43

sixth of the time we expect hakim to roll five

00:47

How do we get there While three thousand rolls a

00:49

divided by six possible choices that's five hundred times that

00:53

you roll a five and so that's it it's b 00:00:55.648 --> [endTime] we're shmoop
