A bag contains 10 red marbles, 8 blue marbles and 2 yellow marbles. Find the theoretical probability of getting a blue marble.
8/20 = 2/5 = 0.4 or 40%
P(Internet)
9 + 26 = 35
35/50 = 0.70
Create a tree diagram of tossing two coins simultaneously.
A "standard" deck of playing cards consists of 52 Cards in each of the 4 suits of Spades, Hearts, Diamonds, and Clubs.
Each suit contains 13 cards: Ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Jack, Queen, King.
Calculate the probability of drawing one ace.
P(1 ace) = 4 /52 = 1/13 = 0.0769 = 7.69%

3/6 = 1/2 = 0.5= 50%
Draw a Venn diagram to describe the following.
Suppose that 530 students play soccer, 290 students play basketball, and 130 students play both sports. There are a total of 1500 students at the school.
Just soccer - 400
Intersection - 130
Just basketball - 160
Neither sport - 810
Find the probability of being on time for both classes.
0.7 * 0.7 = 0.49
A restaurant offers 2 starters, 3 main courses, and 3 desserts.
How many different meals can be chosen using these options?
2 * 3 * 3 = 18 different meals
P(Football and Female)
13/100= 0.13= 13%
Show the sample space when rolling a six-sided die and a coin
1, H 1, T
2, H 2, T
3, H 3, T
4, H 4, T
5, H 5, T
6, H 6, T
P(Cats)
10 + 10 + 6 + 2 = 28
28 + 9 + 2 + 1 = 40
28/40 = 0.7 or 70%
Probability of throwing a strike.
0.7 * 0.6 + 0.3 * 0.2
0.42 + 0.06
0.48
Of a group of 5 students, two will be selected at random for a school trip by picking names out of a hat. The five students are Romualdo, Casimiro, Apolonia, Marbel and Zoila.
How many outcomes are possible?
5*4 = 20
= 20 combinations are possible possible
P(Baseball or Football)
P(Baseball or Football)= (33+36)/100 = 69/100 = 0.69 = 69%
Calculate the probability of getting two 4s when you roll two 4-sided dice.
P(4,4)= 1/16 = 0.0625 = 6.25%
In a survey of university students, 64 had taken mathematics course, 94 had taken chemistry course, 58 had taken physics course, 28 had taken mathematics and physics, 26 had taken mathematics and chemistry, 22 had taken chemistry and physics courses, and 14 had taken all the three courses. Find how many take only math.
28 - 14 = 14
64 - 14 - 14 - 12 = 24 students
P(Win at least one match)
Win both: 0.7 * 0.8 = 0.56
Win, then lose: 0.7 * 0.2 = 0.14
Lose, then win: 0.3 * 0.5 = 0.15
0.56 + 0.14 + 0.15 = 0.85 or 85%

How many outcomes are possible?
How many of them are different?
5*4 = 20 combinations are possible possible
There are 10 different combinations.
P(Baseball/Male) = Prob Baseball given that is Male
(round to 2 DP)
P(Baseball/Male)= 13/48 = 0.27 = 27%
