Exploring Simple Probability Concepts

This video tutorial covers the basics of numerical probability, including key vocabulary such as outcomes and sample space. It explains how to calculate simple probability using examples like rolling dice and drawing cards. The tutorial also provides practical exercises for students to practice calculating probabilities, preparing them for further lessons on compound probability.

What does simple probability measure?

• The chance of one specific event happening

• The likelihood of multiple events occurring together

• The total number of outcomes in an experiment

• The number of experiments conducted

What is an 'outcome' in the context of probability?

• The process of conducting an experiment

• A specific result of an experiment

• The formula used to calculate probability

• The total number of experiments

What does the 'sample space' represent?

• The formula for calculating probability

• A single possible outcome

• The number of favorable outcomes

• All possible outcomes of an experiment

How do you calculate the probability of an event?

• Divide the number of favorable outcomes by total possibilities

• Divide the number of experiments by favorable outcomes

• Multiply the number of favorable outcomes by total possibilities

• Add the number of favorable outcomes to total possibilities
