Probability Example 2 Calculating Probabilities

Learners will be able to:

• Calculate the probability of drawing a specific coloured ball from a bag using the probability formula. • Determine the number of possible outcomes for an event when drawing balls from a bag without replacement. • Identify whether two events are independent or dependent based on their definitions and examples. • Apply the concept of mutually exclusive events to explain why certain events cannot occur at the same time. • Use contingency tables or tree diagrams to represent compound events and show the number of possible outcomes.
