Jake is going to roll a number cube. This is the probability he can expect to roll a number greater than 4. 

What is 2/6 or 1/3? (33.3%)

100

John flipped a coin 18 times. He ended up with tails 5 times. This is his experimental probability.

What is 5/18? (27.7% or 27.8%)

100

Jason is going to spin the spinner below and flip a coin. This would be the probability of him getting heads on the coin and a blue section on the spinner.


What is 1/8? (12.5%)

You are at your favorite ice cream parlor.You can have chocolate, vanilla, or strawberry ice cream. This can be in either a cone or cup. The toppings can be chocolate syrup, sprinkles, peanuts, or cookies. This would be the total number of possible outcomes for this visit. 

What is 24 total outcomes?

100

This could be the estimated amount of even numbers you would get if you rolled a number cube 58 times. 

What is 29?

200

A spinner is divided into equal sections that have different colors on it. There are 5 blue, 2 orange, and 3 red. This would be the probability of landing on a blue space. 

What is 5/10 or 1/2?

200

John spun a spinner and recorded his outcomes below. This would be the experimental probability of getting a red.


What is 12/50 or 6/25? (24%)

200

The table below shows the sales at a concession stand. This would be the probability that the next customer would order no food, but they would get a water.


What is 20/400 or 1/20? (5%) 

200

This would be the probability that someone ordered a pizza with green peppers or onions. 


What is 4/10 or 2/5? (40%)

200

This would be the number of times you could expect to draw out a queen form a standard deck of cards out of 65 trials. 

What is 5 times?

300

Charlie has a total of 12 index cards. On these cards he has that name of all 12 months in a year. This would be the probability that the month drawn would be 5 or less letters. 

What is 5/12? (41.6% or 41.7%) 

(March, April, May, June, and July)

300

Greg rolled a number cube multiple times. He recorded what he got in the table below. This would be his experimental probability of NOT getting a 2 on his next roll.


What is 31/36? (86.1%)

300

If you rolled a dice and picked a card out of a deck of cards, then this would be considered the probability of rolling a 2 and drawing a diamond.

What is 1/24? (4.1% or 4.2%)

300

This is the probability that there is exactly 1 head flipped in the tree diagram.


What is 4/16 or 1/4? (25%)

300

this would be the expected number of Males choosing an SUV out of a new population of 24,000 people.


What is 2,100?

400

There is a bag of marbles with six different colors. There are a total of 78 marbles. If there are 7 green marble, then this would be the probability of NOT choosing a green marble. 

What is 71/78? (91%)

400

The table below shows the number of times a number cube was rolled. This would be the probability that a prime number was NOT rolled. 

What is 24/100 or 6/25? (24%)

400

This is the chance that someone will spin an even number and spin something other than green on these two spinners.



What is 18/80 or 9/40? (22.5%)
