Chapter 4 Games of Chance

• Goals
• To determine the total number of possible
  outcomes from flipping a coin.
• To determine the probability of a given outcome
  when rolling one or two dice.
• To use probability to predict the possibility of
  an event occurring
• To predict the probability of drawing a given
  card from a 53-card deck.

Lesson 2 What are the chances?Standard
Mathematics Standard OneEssential Question How
is math used in everyday life? Why is it
important?Lesson Objectives Students will
determine the total number of possible outcomes
from flipping a coin.

• Using the formula below predict how many times
  you can expect that you will roll the number 6 if
  you roll the dice 20 times.
• Probability of successful outcomes
• Total of possible
  outcomes
• Once you predict, roll the dice see if your
  prediction was correct.
