To find P(six), we need to calculate the ratio of the number of times a sum of 6 was rolled to the total number of rolls. Based on the experiment recording the sums of 100 rolls, we need to count how many times a sum of 6 was rolled. Counting those sums, we find that there were 5 rolls with a sum of 6. Therefore, P(six) = 5/100 = 0.05. The only answer choice that matches this probability is B) 0.05.
