Answer

See below.

Work Step by Step

We have $6$ outcomes, out of which $5$ are not a $3$. Thus the theoretical probability is: $\frac{5}{6}=\frac{125}{150}$ Using the table the experimental probability here is: $\frac{132}{150}$ (because we have $150$ throws in total and out of these $150-18=132$ were not a $3$). The two probabilities are slightly further apart than expected.
