Acasino claims that it’s dice (regular, six-sided) are fair to within 0.1%. Taking α = 0.05, how many trials (rolls) would be required to verify this, in total? (You want to confirm that the probability of getting each result is 1/6th, to the stated relative precision.) Explain your reasoning, and be sure to account for all six possible outcomes of a roll.
