Question
A gambler complained about the dice. They seemed to be loaded! The dice were taken off the table and tested one at a time. One die was rolled 300 times and the following frequencies were recorded.
Outcome | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
Observed frequency O | 61 | 45 | 66 | 34 | 43 | 51 |
Do these data indicate that the die is unbalanced? Use a 1% level of significance. Hint: If the die is balanced, all outcomes should have the same expected frequency.
