- Learn how to calculate probabilities.
- Learn how to project probabilities through experiment.
Lesson 13.1 Games and Probabilities
Ring the Bell and win a prize, only $5 per try. But only 1 in every 100 will succeed. What is the probability you will succeed?
Lesson 13.2 Experimental Probability
What is the likelihood that a ping pong ball bounced across the table will land in the fishbowl? Students will learn how to project probabilities through experiment.
Helps & Hints:
- Play the games of chance in the classroom.
- Evaluate the probability of other games of chance, such as winning the lottery.
