Probability & Venn Diagrams
OVERVIEW
During this half term students will build on their learning in Year 7 and 8 to calculate the probabilities of single and combined events. A key focus is the introduction of independent events and the use of the multiplication rule. Students will also look at a variety of diagrams that support probability such as sample space diagrams, Venn diagrams and two-way tables. Tree diagrams are considered both with and without replacement.
