Simple Probability Experimental and Theoretical

Dan rolled a number cube 20 times. The cube landed on the number 3 six times. What is the experimental probability that Dan will roll a number 3 the next time he rolls the number cube?

Dan rolled a number cube 20 times. The cube landed on the number 3 six times. Which best describes what would likely happen if Dan rolled the number cube another 80 times?

• There would be no change

• The experimental probability would get farther from the theoretical probability.

• The experimental probability would exactly math the theoretical probability.

• The experimental probability would get closer to the theoretical probability.

Sonya wrote each letter of LEDBETTER on a separate index card and put the cards in a box. She picked one letter at random, put the card back, and then repeated the experiment. If she performed this experiment 90 times, which is the best prediction for the number of times that Sonya would pick a T?
