We will start class by discussing what favourable outcomes are and what possible outcomes are. How they are different, how to identify them and their definitions.
The theoretical probability of an event is given by the rule:
number of favourable outcomes
Pr(event) = number of favourable outcomes
number of possible outcomes
We will go over how to use the above rule in a few examples and you will copy these down to refer back to. The examples we will use together will be basic nad the question you work through today in class will gradually extend you and get more difficult as you go.
Below is the link to Chapter 15E where you need to cover questions 1 - 10.

The below videos will help you with the understanding of theoretical probability. They contain examples and step by step guide to solving worded problems. These can help you if you are still stuck with how to solve for theoretical probability.
