What I Need to Know
This module was designed and written with you in mind. It is here to help you
master the nature of number of occurrences of an outcome in an experiment. The scope
of this module permits it to be used in many different learning situations. The language
used recognizes the diverse vocabulary level of students. The lessons are arranged to
follow the standard sequence of the course. But the order in which you read them can
be changed to correspond with the textbook you are now using.
The module is about the Basic Concepts of Probability. After going through this
module, you are expected to:
1. illustrate an experiment, outcome, sample space, and event; and
2. count the number of occurrences of an outcome in an experiment using table,
tree diagram, systematic listing, and fundamental counting principles.
What I Know
Multiple Choice: Choose the letter of the correct answer. Write your chosen letter on a
separate sheet of paper.
4. How many possible outcomes are there if you draw a card at random from a deck
of 10 identical cards suits labeled 1 to 10?
A. 1 B. 5 C. 10 D. 15
5. When two dice are tossed, how many possible outcomes are there?
A. 6 B. 12 C. 24 D. 36

Lesson
Studying probability will help the students develop critical thinking skills and
interpret the probability that surrounds us daily. Students should begin by doing
simple experiments like the coin and dice toss.
In this lesson we will illustrate an experiment, outcome, sample space, and event.
We will also find the number of occurrences of an outcome in an experiment.
What’s In
People deal with probability questions daily. Now, you will attempt to predict the
chance that something will or not happen.

What’s New
People use their personal experiences and intuition to answer questions about
an event’s chance of occurring, but in some cases, it is possible to give a more precise
numerical measure of chance. This is known as probability.
4
The probability of an event, P (event) is the number from 0 to 1 which tells how
likely the event is to happen. Event is a set of outcomes (a subset of the sample space).
When a mother gives birth to a baby, how likely is it that the newly born baby is
a girl? There is an even chance that a mother will give birth to a baby girl. When you
toss a die, how likely is it that 5 dots will come out? The event is unlikely to happen
because there is only 17% chance that 5 dots will come out. In these examples, the
result depends on chance.

After the mix and match of blouses, long pants, and short pants, we come up
with 8 different outfits. The mixing and matching of blouses, short pants, and long pants
is an experiment. The 8 different outfits are called as the possible outcomes. Each
possible result of the probability experiment is an outcome. The set of all outcomes is
the sample space of the experiment. The sample space is usually denoted by S and the
total number of possible outcomes by n(S).

There are four ways on how to count the number of occurrences of an outcome in
an experiment.

outcome. Examples include rolling a die, tossing/flipping of a coin, and picking card

Due to the pandemic, teens are prohibited to go outside their homes.
It is weekend and the sisters Marie and Jesusa finished their school
tasks and daily house chores early. To ease the boredom, Marie and
Jesusa decided to play chess. At the beginning of the game, the two
girls are arguing who will be the first to do the move. Nobody wants to
give up for the first move. Their brother Victor heard the two girls
https://freesvg.org/gossiping-women
arguing and he introduce to them the tossing of coin to have a fair
decision on who will take the first move.
If you were the player, what would you choose, head or tail? Why?
When a coin is tossed, how likely is it to get a tail?

Lesson
Experimental Probability and
1 Theoretical Probabiliy
You have heard the terms, theoretical probability, and experimental probability,
but what do they mean? Are they in anyway related? This is what we are going to
discover in this module. It discusses the differences between experimental and
theoretical probability and their applications. We will explore the definition of an event
and learn how to calculate the probability of its occurrence. We will also practice using
standard mathematical notation to calculate and describe different kinds of
probabilities.

What is It
We can stop there. This lesson is all about probability. Jayzel’s experiment is an example
of experimental probability. Let us talk more about this as we go through the lesson.
In Math, once we contend with probability, we have a tendency could also be asked for
the experimental probability of associate degree experiment. This implies that they are
searching for the likelihood of one thing happening based mostly on the results of the
associate degree actual experiment. This is often the experimental probability definition.
Theoretical probability is the probability that is calculated using Math formulas. This
is the probability based on Math theory.
Let us look at an example where we first calculate the theoretical probability, and then
perform the experiment to determine the experimental probability.
Example 1
Two dice are rolled. Find the theoretical probability of each.
a. 𝑃(𝑠𝑢𝑚 𝑜𝑓 3)
b. 𝑃(𝑠𝑢𝑚 𝑜𝑓 5 𝑜𝑟 𝑔𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑟)
Solution:
a. favorable outcomes = (2,1), (1, 2) = 2
total number of outcomes = 36
𝒏𝒖𝒎𝒃𝒆𝒓 𝒐𝒇 𝒇𝒂𝒗𝒐𝒓𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆 𝒐𝒖𝒕𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒔
𝑷(𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒏𝒕) =
𝒕𝒐𝒕𝒂𝒍 𝒏𝒖𝒎𝒃𝒆𝒓 𝒐𝒇 𝒐𝒖𝒕𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒔
𝟐 𝟏
𝑷(𝒔𝒖𝒎 𝒐𝒇 𝟑) = 𝟑𝟔
= 𝟏𝟖
b. favorable outcomes = (4,1), (5,1), (6,1), (3,2), (4,2), (5,2), (6,2), (2,3), (3,3), (4,3),
(5,3), (6,3), (1,4), (2,4), (3,4), (4,4), (5,4), (6,4), (1,5), (2,5), (3,5), (4,5), (5,5), (6,5),
(1,6), (2,6), (3,6), (4,6), (5,6), (6,6) = 30
total number of outcomes = 36
𝟑𝟎 𝟓
𝑷(𝒔𝒖𝒎 𝒐𝒇 𝟓 𝒐𝒓 𝒈𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒓) = =
𝟑𝟔 𝟔
Example 2
A coin is tossed, and a six-sided die is rolled. Find the probability of getting a tail
on the coin and a 5 on the die.
Solution:
These two events (the coin and die) are independent events because flipping of
the coin does not affect rolling the die. The events are independent of each other. Let us
find the probability of each independent event.
5
There is only one tail on a coin and there are two total outcomes (head or tail).
𝟏
𝑷(𝒕𝒂𝒊𝒍) = 𝟐
There is only one 5 on a die and there are six total outcomes on a die ( 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6).
𝟏
𝑷(𝟓) =
𝟔
Now, we need to find the probability of tossing a tail on the coin and rolling a 5
on the die. So, we need to combine both events. There is a rule for calculating the
probability of independent events.
To find the probability of two or more independent events that
occur in sequence, find the probability of each event separately,
and then multiply the answers.
𝑷(𝑨 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑩) = 𝑷(𝑨) 𝐱 𝑷(𝑩)
Example 3:
A spinner was spun in a probability experiment 50 times. The
results are shown in the table. Compute the experimental probability of
the spinner landing on yellow.
Example 4:
Suppose we toss a coin 145 times and get a tail of 60 times. Now, we toss a coin
at random. What is the probability of getting a tail?
Solution:
Total number of trials = 145
Number of times tail appeared = 60
6
For some problems, you are expected find the probability of something occurring
and then apply it to a whole group of people or a situation in which many trials are
run. To solve these problems, you are going to have to take the probability you
found and multiply it by the whole group of people or the number of trials that are
run. It should look something like this:
Example 5
In preparation of her cake party, Joedith surveyed 40 students at Makati
Science High School about their favorite cake flavor. She found out that 8 of them like
mango bravo. If 215 students are expected to attend the cake party, about how many
will prefer mango bravo?
Solution:
𝟖 𝟏
𝑷(𝒍𝒊𝒌𝒆 𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒐 𝒃𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒐) = 𝟒𝟎
= 𝟓
To get the number of students who prefer mango bravo out of 215 students:

The experimental probability also is an approach that relies upon actual experiments
and adequate recordings of occurrence of certain events. It is defined as the ratio of the
number of times that event occurs to the total number of trials.

𝑷(𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒏𝒕) =

The basic difference between these two approaches is that in the experimental approach;
the probability of an event is based on what has happened by conducting a series of
actual experiments, while in theoretical approach; we attempt to predict what will occur
without performing the experiments.
