Hello, this is Tim Mazur and Nigel Marshall. Today we are going to teach you about probablility.

Here are some helpful terms to help you understand probability better:

Theoretical probability: This is known as the 'should' probability. It is the mathematical calculation that an event will happen in theory or things that you assume that will happen. Experimental probability: This is known as the 'does' probability. They are the outcomes of what happened when you tried the experiment out (ususally in the short run) Outcome: This is the result of an event. Percent: It is out of 100 and shown as ' %.' Favourable Outcome: is the outcome you want to have. Total Possible Outcomes: The name explains it already. It is the number of all the outcomes you can get.

Here is a powerpoint that will help you understand probability a little better: media type="custom" key="846377"
