Do you divide to find the probability?
Yes, you divide the number of expected outcomes by the number of possible outcomes in order to determine probability.
If you spin 2 spinners once how many possible outcomes are there?
To determine the amount of possible outcomes, there must be a number of sections for each spinner
A sweater comes in 3 sizes and 6 colors what is the number of possible outcomes?
The number of outcomes depends on what the experiment is! If the variable of interest is the size, there are just three outcomes. If the variable of interest is price, then there is not enough information to determine the possible outcomes.
A diagram used to determine the number of possible outcomes in a probability situation?
a sample .... i think
How do you figure probablity?
Calculating Probabilities for Equally Likely OutcomesStep 1: Count the total number of possible outcomes of an eventStep 2: Count the number of outcomes that represent a success - that is, the number of outcomes that represent the desired result.Step 3: Determine the probability of success by dividing the number of successes by the total number of possible outcomes:
Total possible outcomes?
Is the number of all possible outcomes of an experiment. The number depends on the experiment.
What is the equation of probability?
The probability of an event occurring can be found by dividing the number of favorable outcomes (what you want to happen) by the number of possible outcomes number of favorable outcomes probability = _________________________ number of possible outcomes
How do you find probability from a probability generating function?
you ether use a graph tree diagram or web diagram to answer the possible outcomes of the question possible outcomes meaning the number of outcomes the person will have in the probability or divide the number of favourable outcomes by the number of possible outcomes favorible outcomes meaning the number of outcomes all together
How do you do a probability?
Number of useful outcomes over number of possible outcomes and simplify it if you can. Imagine you want an even number and you roll a die. There are 6 possible outcomes and three of them are useful outcomes (outcomes we want). 3 6 Simplify it and you get 1 2
How do you determent the probability?
To determine a probability:Take the number of outcomes that you wantDivide it by the number of total possible outcomesFor example, to determine the probability of taking a green ball out of a bag with 5 red balls, 5 blue balls and 5 green balls:Take the number of outcomes that you want: 5Divide it by the number of total possible outcomes: 15 divided by 5 = 1/3Write the answer as a fraction (eg. 1/3), a decimal (eg. 0.33) or a percentage (eg.33%).
What is the ratio of favorable outcomes to the number of possible outcomes?
1023:1022
For a given event what is the result of dividing the number of successful outcomes by the number of possible outcomes?
Probability
