     • Probability or chance is how likely something is to happen. If something has a low probability, it is unlikely to happen. If something has a high probability, it is likely to happen. Probabilities are most commonly shown as fractions. The probability of getting 'tails' when you toss a coin is a 1 in 2 chance, or 1/2.

   What is the probability of a certain event?

   • The higher the probability number or percentage of an event, the more likely is it that the event will occur. The probability of a certain event occurring depends on how many possible outcomes the event has. If an event has only one possible outcome, the probability for this outcome is always 1 (or 100 percent).

   Why is probability important?

   • Probability tells you how likely it is that an event will occur. This means that for certain events you can actually calculate how likely it is that they will happen. In this activity, you will do these calculations and then test them to see whether they hold true for reality! Probability allows us to quantify the likelihood an event will occur.

   How many ways can probability happen?

   • Number of ways it can happen: 4 (there are 4 blues) Total number of outcomes: 5 (there are 5 marbles in total) We can show probability on a Probability Line: Probability is always between 0 and 1

   How important is luck & chance in life?

   • While there is no denying that hard work and skills are important in life’s journey, there is also no denying that luck and chance may be every bit as important in shaping the course of our lives and our achievements. This splashes cold water on the belief that we live in a world of strict meritocracy where we deserve all that comes our way.

   How can we show probability on a probability line?

   • We can show probability on a Probability Line: Probability is always between 0 and 1 Probability does not tell us exactly what will happen, it is just a guide Example: toss a coin 100 times, how many Heads will come up? Probability says that heads have a ½ chance, so we can expect 50 Heads.

   May 23, 2024 · Appreciating the world is random can foster perseverance, gratitude for our own luck and empathy for the plight of others. Your luck, they say, can turn around.
