 How did you find the activity?

How did you perform the simple
probabilty experiment?
How did you record the results of your
probability experiment?
How did you express the outcomes of
your probability experiment?
What did you notice in the results of
your probability experiments?

POSSIBLE
OUTCOME
S

Probabilty = number of successes

(frequency)
number of trials

Activity
Get a die.
Roll the die. Put a mark in the
tally column for the number
of dots that landed on top.
Do this experiment 10 times.
Add the tally mark. Then
write the number in the
frequency column.
Express the probability using
the formula.

HOW DO YOU RECORD SIMPLE

PREDICTION?

Outcomes of probability

Scale
0

Impossible to happen

Equally likely to happen

Certain to happen

What is the probability of

each?
The probability of a red marble is drawn
from a box containing blue marbles.
The probability that the pointer will
point at blue color in a spinner which
contains red, blue, green, and yellow.
The probability that a letter E is drawn
from a deck of cards of vowel letters.
The probability that a blue marble is
drawn from a box of 5 blue marbles.

Express the outcomes of your

prediction.
1. What is the chance that you will get a perfect
score in a test?
2. What is the probability that a newly-born baby
is a girl?
3. Toss a die, what is the chance that you will get 0
on top?
4. What is the probability that Mark chooses a
puppy for a pet from a pet shop selling puppies,
rabbits, and cats?
5. Toss a coin. What is the probability that neither
the head nor the tail shows up?

HOME ACTIVITY
Record your prediction on simple probability. Write:
0 = impossible to happen
= equally likely to happen
1 = certain to happen
1. You observe that people in your place are rushing.
They bring their important things to a safe place.
What is the probability that your place catches
fire?
2. The sky is cloudy. Its going to rain.
3. Mark and Rizza are candidates for class president.
