The purpose of this assignment is to differentiate between Classical

and Empirical Approaches to assigning probability.

• Roll 2 six-sided dice 100 times.

• Record the observed values in cells G1:G100

o Note: If you do not have dice, you may use an online dice server like
this one

• http://dicelog.com/dice

• Follow directions to roll two, 6-sided dice (in this case, 2D6= two, 6-
sided dice)

• http://www.silviotorre.it/random_generators/dice.aspx

• Make a frequency chart to show which values come up most often.

• Make a chart that displays these results.• Which three results occur
most frequently?

• Make a list of all possible combinations of the dice.

• Why do these three results come up most frequently?

• Using the Classical Approach, what is the probability that an "8" will
occur?

• Using the Empirical Approach, what are the actual results from your
experiment?

• Are the results similar? Please explain.
