At the end of this REVIEW LESSON, the
students are expected to:
Determine the number of outcomes in a sequence of events;
Apply the counting principles in solving real-life problems;
Identify sample spaces and determine the probability of an event
using classical or empirical probability;
Counting Techniques (JHS Lessons)
Probability is primarily concerned with predicting chances, especially
the occurrence of an event. But before predictions can be made, you
should first know how to determine the outcomes of an event.

Any probability activity, called an experiment, gives results which are

known as outcomes.
Example: When you toss a fair coin, there are always two possible outcomes
a head and a tail.
Sample Space and Events (Review)
A sample space, also called an outcome space, is simply the set of all
possible outcomes of an experiment.

An event refers to a subset of the sample space.

Simple Probability (Grade 8 lesson)
Probability of an event, P(E) is a numerical value that describes the
likelihood that an event will happen or not. It is simply calculated using
the ratio of the cardinality of the event and the cardinality of the
sample space.

Where n(E) is the number elements in the event and n(S) is the number
of elements in the sample space.
 The probability of an event is always a value between an including 0
and 1
A probability of 0 means that the event is impossible to happen
The probability of 1 means that the event is certain to happen.
Less likely to happen close to zero
More likely to happen close to 1
Examples (Review on Grade 8 lessons)
1) If you flip two coins, what is the probability that it will show two head ?
Solutions: Sample Space = {HH, HT, TH, TT} n(S) = 4
Event = {HH} n(E) = 1
ANSWER: P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = or 25%
2) If a pair of dice is thrown, what is the probability that it will show a prime sum?
Solutions: Sample Space = { (1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (1,4), (1,5), (1,6), (2,1), (2,2),
(2,3), (2,4), (2,5), (2,6), (3,1), (3,2), (3,3), (3,4), (3,5), (3,6), (4,1),
(4,2), (4,3), (4,4), (4,5), (4,6), (5,1), (5,2), (5,3), (5,4), (5,5), (5,6),
(6,1), (6,2), (6,3), (6,4), (6,5), (6,6)} n(S) = 36
Event = { (1,1), (1,2), (1,4), (1,6), (2,1), (2,3), (2,5), (3,2), (3,4),
(4,1), (4,3), (5,2), (5,6), (6,1), (6,5)} n(E) = 15
ANSWER: P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 15/36 = 5/12 or 41.67%
3) If a card is selected at random from a standard deck of 52 cards, what is the
probability of picking a black jack?
Solutions n(S) = 52
n(E) = {Jack Spade, Jack Club) = 2
Answer P(E) = 2/52
4) Jarold collects stamps from different countries. He has 10 stamps from China, 5
from Thailand, 3 from France, 6 from USA, and 1 from Venezuela. His brother
borrows one stamp for a school project. What is the probability of getting
stamp from Thailand?
Solutions n(S) = 25
n(E) = 5
Answer P(E) = 5/25 = 1/5
5) A four-digit number is formed using the digits 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, and 9. What is the
probability that the number formed is even?
Solutions n(S) = 6 x 6 x 6 x 6 = 1,296
n(E) = 6 x 6 x 6 x 2 = 432
Answer P(E) = 432/1296
6) Marie has 8 books including books on geometry, chemistry, biology, history,
English, algebra, statistics, and Filipino. What is the probability that her math
books are located at the rightmost part of the shelf?
Solutions n(S) = 8P8 = 40,320
n(E) = 3P3 x 5P5 = 720
Answer P(E) = 720/40,320
