Answer: D. 0.860

Step-by-step explanation:

In the table we can see that he rolled the cube 1000 times, and he recorded that 140 of those times he rolled a 5.

Then, the probability of rolling a 5 will be equal to:

P1 = 140/1000 = 0.14

Now, the probabilty of NOT rolling a 5, is equal to the rest of the probabilities, this is:

P2 = 1 - 0.14 = 0.86

then the correct option is D
