Probability space

The first instance of  is under the Probability and statistics Math Mission. This exercise plays with the definition of a probability sample space specifically concentrating on dice.

Types of Problems
There is one type of problem in this exercise:


 * 1) Find the probability: The problem has a sample space drawn and asks a probability question. The student can use the drawn sample space to select the options that satisfy the probability question. The student is also required to type the correct solution in the answer box provided.Probsp.png

Strategies
This exercise is easy to get accuracy badges because the manipulative is easy to use and helps to arrive at an answer that can be read off the manipulative. Speed badges can be medium if one avoids using the manipulative. Using the manipulative would make speed badges hard.


 * 1) The sample space is either two six-sided die or one six-sided die and one four-sided die being rolled.
 * 2) The manipulative is not required to arrive at the answer, and thus it can be avoided if you wish.
 * 3) Reading the problem carefully and using the manipulative should make the answers difficult to get wrong.
 * 4) When entering answers, fractions do need to be reduced on this exercise.
