The empirical probability of a 4 or 5 is (count of outcome = 4 or 5)/(count of all outcomes) = (44 +40)/240 = 7/20
The problem statement asks you to assume the outcomes will remain in this proportion going forward. That is, the number of outcomes (n) of 4 or 5 in the next 60 rolls of the number cube is expected to satisfy 7/20 = n/60
