2-12 Using Probability

You can use Probability to simulate the following.

• The die faces that will appear when a single die is thrown a specified number of times (1

Die)

• The sum of the data of dice faces that will appear when a pair of dice is shown a

specified number of times (2 Dice +)

• The product of the data of dice faces that will appear when a pair of dice is shown a

specified number of times (2 Dice

>

)

• When any number of balls labeled A, B, C, D, E, and F are placed into a box, data about

how many times each ball will be drawn within a specified number of draws (Container)

You can specify any integer from 1 to 20 as the number of die faces.

You can access Probability in the Main application or the eActivity application. From either
application, you can save Probability sessions in ClassPad memory and reopen the session
for future use.

Probability sessions also can be inserted into an eActivity. For more information, see “10-2
Creating an eActivity”.

Important!

Most Probability operations are the same in both the Main application and the eActivity
application.
