Compared to the probability of spinning a 7 on a spinner with 11 equal parts numbered 2 through 12 which probability is higher?
What is 1/11 and 1/6 ?
A spinner has 8 equal parts: 4 are green, 2 are blue, and 2 are red.
Is it certain, more likely, less likely, equally likely or impossible to land on green compared to red?
What is more likely?
You draw a card from a shuffled deck 12 times, replacing the card each time. You got 4 hearts.
What was the experimental probability of drawing a heart? How does this compare to the theoretical probability?
What is experimental: 4/12 ; theoretical: 3/12. The experimental probability was higher than expected.
You pulled from a mystery bucket 20 times. You got: 8 red, 6 green, 6 yellow
You don’t know how many of each are in the bucket but you know there is only red, green and yellow.
What might you guess the theoretical probability of pulling a red object is?Or guess how many of each colour there actually is in the bag?
Explain your reasoning using experimental probability.
What is 8/20 for red, 6/20 for green, 6/20 for yellow, or any answer that shows there being more red and an equal amount of green and yellow.
You do 30 pulls from a mystery bucket, with replacement. You record the following results:12 blue, 9 red, and 6 green marbles.
You don’t know how many of each colour are actually in the bucket.
What would you estimate the theoretical probability of pulling a blue marble is as a fraction/percentage?
What is 12/27 and 0.44, so we estimate the theoretical probability based on the experiment data.
The assumption is that, over many trials, the experimental results begin to reflect the actual (theoretical) objects in the bucket. Your answer must show blue as theoretically the most likely to happen.
You have 2 die, you roll both dice. The probability for one of the dice showing 1 is...making sure the answer contains its simpliest form.
What is 11/36?
You spin a spinner with 4 equal colours (red, blue, green, yellow) two times.
What is the probability of landing on red both times?
What is 1/4 × 1/4 = 1/16?
