If it's a fair cube, then the probability of a ' 1 ' (or any other number 2 thru 6) on

any roll is 1/6 . The most probable result of 120 rolls is 20 1s, 20 2s, 20 3s, 20 4s,

20 5s, and 20 6s.

That's the most probable. This means that if you do 120 rolls an infinite number

of times, that's the set of results you'll get most often. But it does NOT tell you

what you WILL get if you do 120 rolls one time.

A related comment: If you roll the cube 119 times and a ' 1 ' has never come up

yet ... and it's a fair and honest cube ... then the chance of rolling a ' 1 ' on the

120th roll is . . . . (wait for it) . . . . 1/6 , just like it was on the first roll. The cube

has no memory, and there's no such thing as "it's due".

I rolled the dice 120 times what's the probability of getting a 6?

If you rolled a die 120 times, the probability of getting a 6 is one in six. It does not matter how many times you roll the die - the probability is still one in six - except that the long term mean will approach the theoretical value of 0.166... as the number of trials increases.


What is the probability that you roll a number less than five?

The answer depends on how many times a die is rolled and whether it is a fair die.For a single roll of a fair normal die, the answer is 2/3.The answer depends on how many times a die is rolled and whether it is a fair die.For a single roll of a fair normal die, the answer is 2/3.The answer depends on how many times a die is rolled and whether it is a fair die.For a single roll of a fair normal die, the answer is 2/3.The answer depends on how many times a die is rolled and whether it is a fair die.For a single roll of a fair normal die, the answer is 2/3.

If you roll a die 60 times about how many times will you expect to get 1?

Well, statistically speaking, if you roll a fair six-sided die 60 times, you can expect to get a 1 about 10 times. But hey, don't get too attached to that number, probability can be a fickle friend. Just roll the dice and see what Lady Luck has in store for you!
