1. The number of times (r) that a 3 or 4 appers on a number cube is 2, while the total number of sides (t) on a number cube is 6
r=2, t=6
2. To find the probability of rolling a 3 or 4, simply place the number of desired outcomes (r) above the number of total outcomes (t)
$$\displaystyle\frac{{r}}{{t}}=\frac{{2}}{{6}}=\frac{{1}}{{3}}$$

If you used a random number generator for the numbers from 1 through 20 to play a game, what is the theoretical probability of getting each of these outcomes? a. A multiple of 3 or a multiple of 7, P(multiple of 3 or multiple of 7) b. P( even or odd) c. P(prime or 1) d. How did you find the probabilities of these events?
A number cube is rolled 20 times and lands on 1 two times and on 5 four times. Find each experimental probability. Then compare the experimental probability to the theoretical probability.

A bag contains 7 tiles, each with a different number from 1 to 7. You choose a tile without looking, put it aside, choose a second tile without looking, put it aside, then choose a third tile without looking. What is the probability that you choose tiles with the numbers 1, 2, and 3 in that order?
