In this lesson you have learned how to predict the frequency of an event by using the theoretical probability.
If you were to spin 400 times, predict how many times you would land on blue?
Ask students to make a Venn diagram to find similarities and differences between theoretical and experimental probability. Take students even further by asking them to come up with examples of each.
Have students carry out an experiment with a die or spinner. Ex: Roll a pair of dice 50 times. • Students then compare their results to the theoretical probabilities. Explain the discrepancies.
A bag has 4 blue marbles, 6 green and 2 red. Marcus will pick a marble from the bag and return it 60 times. Of the 60 times predict how many times you would expect Marcus to pick a blue marble?
If you were to roll a six-sided die 150 times. How many times would you expect to roll a number greater than 4?
