Andre is waiting for the school bus. He knows that 2 out of 6 cars in his town are white. He wants to determine the probability
that at least two white cars drive by in a row. He uses a number cube as a simulation. He lets the numbers 1 and 2 represent a white car and lets all other numbers represent a car that is not white. He rolls the number cube 6 times and records the outcomes in the table below.
