Equally Likely Outcomes and Probability (AC9M5P01)

list the possible outcomes of chance experiments involving equally likely outcomes and compare to those which are not equally likely

Unit focus

  • Students define the sample space, decide whether outcomes are equally likely and express event probability as favourable equally likely outcomes over total outcomes.
  • Use this routine: Represent → Reason → Calculate → Interpret → Verify.
  • Watch for event names assumed equally likely: Repeated counters or unequal sectors change probability.
