Let be a natural number with . Using one die and one coin, perform the following experiment.\begin{center}\fbox{\begin{minipage}{0.9\textwidth}Roll the die once.\quad-- If the outcome is less than or equal to , toss the coin times and record the number of heads.\quad-- If the outcome is greater than , toss the coin times and record the number of heads.\end{minipage}}\end{center}Repeat this experiment times, and let be the number of times the recorded value is . Suppose that . Using the standard normal table on the right, compute

Final Answer:
[THOUGHT] The Python output confirms that the value of is 0.977. Multiplying by 1000 gives the desired result directly as 977. There is no disagreement between the Python output and my initial reasoning, confirming the correctness of the solution. [/THOUGHT] [THOUGHT] The Python output confirms that the value of is 0.977.
