  8. Probability Learning Intention Success Criteria • Understand the term • probability. • We are learning how to calculate basic probability. • Calculate the probability of an event happening. www.mathsrevision.com 3. Write in fraction form. Created by Mr. Lafferty Maths Dept.

  9. Probability Calculating Ratio Probability One way of thinking about Probability is as a ratio Chance of an event happening is 1 in ......... www.mathsrevision.com P(Event) = the number of favourable events compared to the total number of events. Created by Mr. Lafferty Maths Dept.

  10. Probability Calculating Probability Probability can be thought of as a simple fraction or decimal. It always lies between 0 and 1. 0 meaning impossible ( could not happen) 1 meaning certain ( will definitely happen) www.mathsrevision.com Created by Mr. Lafferty Maths Dept.

  11. Probability Calculating Ratio Probability Example : What is the chance of getting a 4 when rolling a dice. The number of favourable events is 1 The number of total events is 6 (1,2,3,4,5,6,) So probability is www.mathsrevision.com P(4) = 1 in 6 chance Created by Mr. Lafferty Maths Dept.

  12. Probability Calculating Ratio Probability Example : What is the chance of getting an odd when rolling a dice. The number of favourable events is 3 (1,3,5) The number of total events is 6 (1,2,3,4,5,6,) So probability is www.mathsrevision.com P(odd) = 3 in 6 chance Simplify HCF = 3 P(odd) = ½ P(odd) = 1 in 2 chance Created by Mr. Lafferty Maths Dept.

  13. Probability Calculating Probability Example : A boy tossed a coin. What is the probability that it is heads. Example : There are 3 red and 4 green balls in a bag. What is the probability a green ball is picked. www.mathsrevision.com Created by Mr. Lafferty Maths Dept.
