Question

An adventure game has a number cube with 12 equal-size faces: some labeled with 1, some labeled with 2, and some labeled with 3. The game manufacturer tests the cube by rolling it 12, then 120, and then 1200 times.
What is the best estimate of the number of faces labeled with 2?



Outcome Number of trials
12 120 1200

2 6 48 394
3 1 5 189

Answer 1

The best estimate is 4 because there are 3 different numbers on a 12 sided die and 12 / 3 = 4.
