• more likely

• equally likely

• less likely

• impossible

Roll the Dice:

• 1/2

• 5%

Roll the Dice:

What is the probability of rolling a number greater than 2?

• 2/6

• 4/5

• 4/4

• 2/3

Roll the Dice:

Which number are you most likely to roll and why?

• It is equally likely to roll all of them because there is one of each number.

• You are more likely to roll a 6 because there are 6 numbers on the die.

• You are more likely to roll a 3 because there is a 50% chance and 3 is half of 6.

• It is more likely to roll a two because two is an even number.

Number Tiles:

If you reach into the bag and choose 1 tile, what will least likely be the number? Why?

• You will least likely select a 7 because there is only one in the bag.

• You will least likely select a 5 because there is only one in the bag.

• They are equally likely because there is 1 of each number in the bag.

• You will least likely select a 1 because there is only one in the bag.

Number Tiles:

What is the probability of choosing a 7?

• 7/10

• 0.1

• 7%

• 3/7

Number Tiles:

How likely is that to choose a number greater than 3 than a number less than three?

• more likely

• less likely

• equally likely

• highly unlikely

Number Tiles:

What is the probability of choosing an even number?

• 5/10

• 1/4

• 1/3

• 0.375

Number Tiles:

If you know the theoretical probability of selecting any given tile is 1/10, how many of each number would you expect to select if you choose tiles from the bag 40 times.

• 10

• 4

• 2

• There is absolutely no way of guessing the probability. More information is needed.
