Content description VC2M6P02

Mathematics Version 2.0 / Level 6 / Probability
Content description
conduct repeated chance experiments and run simulations with an increasing number of trials using digital tools; compare observations with expected results and discuss the effect on variation of increasing the number of trials
Elaborations
  1. using digital tools to simulate multiple tosses of a coin or dice and comparing the relative frequency of an outcome as the number of trials increases; and identifying the variation between trials and realising that the results tend to the prediction with larger numbers of trials
  2. using online simulations of repeated random events to recognise emerging patterns, discussing and comparing expected results to the actual results
  3. investigating the relative frequencies of all outcomes for a chance experiment and verifying that their sum equals one
  4. systematically recording the outcome of large numbers of spins on a spinner and analysing the relative frequencies of outcomes, representing these as percentages
