The experimental probability is computed to be 43/150 or approximately 28.67%. This is computed by dividing the event of number 3 showing by the total number of times the cube is rolled.
The theoretical probability is computed to be 1/6 or approximately 16.67%. Since there is only one side with the number 3, and there is a total of six sides in a cube. Theoretical probability assumes that the number cube is fair and all sides have equal chances of showing up.
