If you multiply a negative number by a positive number, you get a negative product. if you were to multiply two positive or two negative numbers, you'd get positive products.
We know that
<span>55 field goal attempts. -------------> is the 100%
</span>X -------------------------------> 40%
x-40%*55/100%-------> (40/100)*55-------> 0.40*55-------> 22
so
<span>
the answer is
0.4</span>
So probability is (desired outcomes)/(total possitlble outcomes)
desired is 1 since 3 appaears once on the cube
6 total possible
so probaity of rolling a3 is 1/6
100 times
100 times 1/6=100/6=16 and 2/3 times
round up
17 times
