Exploring Dice Probabilities: Dice Sum Discovery

Students roll two dice 20 times, record and graph the sums, and compare their experimental results with theoretical probability.

$2USD · Digital download

Students roll two dice 20 times, record and graph the sums, and compare their experimental results with theoretical probability. A reflection question prompts students to explain why some sums, such as 7, are more likely than others.
