Question: A student wants to simulate the probability of a student being left-handed. Based on research, 10% of people are left-handed. They decide to use a number cube (1–6) and say that rolling a 6 means the student is left-handed. How could the student improve the simulation to better represent the true probability?
A) Use a spinner with 10 equal sections and label one for left-handed students.
B) Use a coin — heads means left-handed.
C) Roll a number cube — even means right-handed, odd means left-handed.
D) The simulation is perfect as-is.
