Support · Stage 4 · Probability
Support Express the probability of an event, which has a finite number of equally likely outcomes, as P(event) = (numberoffavourableoutcomes)/(totalnumberofoutcomes)

Prerequisite links are draft mappings generated from the syllabus structure (earlier stage, same strand, closest content). They are being reviewed by teachers. Spot a poor match? Tell us.
Prerequisite dot points
Recognise that outcomes are described as equally likely when any one outcome has the same chance of occurring as any other outcome
Stage 3 · Chance A Draft mapping
No checked resources on this prerequisite dot point yet.
Record the outcomes for chance experiments where the outcomes are not equally likely to occur and assign probabilities to the outcomes using fractions (denominators of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 10)
Stage 3 · Chance B Draft mapping
No checked resources on this prerequisite dot point yet.
Record all outcomes in chance experiments where each outcome is equally likely to occur
