Use our interactivity to simulate picking up a bow and some arrows and trying to hit the target a few times. Can you work out the best settings for the sight? This activity gives an opportunity to gather and collate data, and to test hypotheses, and is designed to be accessible to younger secondary maths students (grades 5, 6, 7, and 8).

How many different football team formations can you find? This activity provides an engaging real-life context to investigate simple combinations, and is aimed at Key Stage 3 students.

Does weight give shot putters an advantage? This activity encourages students to engage in statistical analysis, and is aimed at GCSE and A-level students (Key Stages 4 and 5).

If two goals are scored in a hockey match between two equally-matched teams, what are the possible scores? This activity gives an opportunity to investigate probability in the context of sport, and is designed to be accessible to secondary maths students at Key Stage 3.

Find a quick, concise explanation of probability. An example is given and clearly explained.

Discover how to figure out all the possible outcomes when performing an experiment by following along with this tutorial. [4:18]

Take a look at this tutorial to see how to determine if an event is independent or dependent. [4:20]

Watch three examples and figure out if they are independent or dependent events. This tutorial walks you through each example and explains why it is an independent or dependent event. [4:19]

View this tutorial and see how to figure out the probability of independently drawing certain cards from a deck. [5:54]

This video describes the process for finding the overall probability of drawing certain cards from a deck when the two events are independent, i.e., have no impact, on each other. In the example presented, one card is a queen and the other is less than seven, and their probabilities are used to calculate the probability of both happening. [5:53]

Using a card trick as an example, this tutorial explains how to find the probability of independent events. [5:53]

Probability is the likelihood that a given event will take place. So how do you determine the probability of a simple event? Watch this example using marbles for an explanation. [4:36]

Probability is useful when solving everyday problems. Watch this tutorial to see how to find the probability of the complement of an event using gummy worms. [5:36]

The complement of an event is the set of all non-favorable outcomes. Watch this demonstration to understand how to find the complement of an event. [5:36]

Simulators are a great way to model an experiment without actually performing the experiment in real life. This tutorial looks at using a simulator to figure out what might happen if you randomly guessed on a true/false quiz. [7:13]

Probability is the chance an event will occur. Check out this tutorial to learn about probability. [5:17]

In this video segment from Cyberchase, Bianca goes on a quest to find out if a coin toss really is a 50-50 proposition.
