Walt: Assign probabilities to simple events using fractions and percentages.


Yesterday I was learning to assign probabilities to a game played with two 10 sided dice. I played with Huntah. We took turns rolling the dice. We rolled it 20 times and recorded our scores in the outcomes column. Of the 20 attempts we were successful 4 times. So the probability is 4/20 as a simple fraction and 20 % as a percentage. We did similar games this week. However, my understanding is a bit unclear. Next I’d like to play probability games online to improve my understanding.
