Step 9 Objective
Understand relative frequency as an estimate of probability and use this to compare outcomes of experiments.
- Examples of what pupils should
know and be able to do - Probing questions
- What if pupils find
this a barrier?
Probing questions
If we carry out the experiment 1000 times, what do you think the probability will be?
Why do you think the probability will get closer to ... as we carry out the experiment?
Imagine we are manufacturing cars. How could we find the probability of a person buying a car in October?
