What you will learn! How to use tree diagrams to count outcomes and find probabilities.
What you really need to know! A game in which players of equal skill have an equal chance of winning is a fair game. A tree diagramis used to show all of the possible outcomes, or sample space, in a probability experiment.
Example 1: Tom flips two coins. Draw a tree diagram to show the sample space of how the coins can land. Then determine the probability of flipping two tails.

Example 1: Method 2 Choices x Choices = Number of outcomes 2 x 2 = 4 possibilities
Example 2: An ice cream sundae at the Ice Cream Shoppe is made from one flavor of ice cream and one topping. For ice cream flavors, you can choose from chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry.
Example 2: For toppings you can have hot fudge, butterscotch, or marshmallow. Find the number of different sundaes that are possible.
