    The document provides examples of probability word problems involving events such as rolling dice, drawing cards from a deck, families with children, and coins being tossed. It also gives rules for calculating probability, such as determining the sample space and possible outcomes for events. There is an assignment for students to work in groups to gather typhoon data and use probability concepts to estimate the chances of a typhoon hitting each month.

    How to solve probability word problems:
    1. Identify events for which probability is to
    be determined.
    2. Calculate probability of each number.
    3. Calculate probability of each event.
    4. Add probability of each event.
    Probability Rules:
    1. The probability of any event is a number ( either a
    fraction, a decimal, or a percent) between and including
    0 and 1.
    2. If an event will never happen, then its probability is 0.
    3. If an event is sure to happen then the probability is one.
    4. The sum of the probabilities of all the outcomes in the
    sample space is 1.
    Assignment:
    (group activity 4: LET’S TAKE AN ACTIVITY TOGETHER)

    Each group will gather data on the number of typhoons


    that hit the country in the previous year. Using the basic
    concept probability, come up with the report showing the
    estimated chances of a typhoon hitting the country for
    each month.
     The report should contain the following:
    1. Representatives of the data.
    2. Process of coming up with the estimated
    probabilities
    3. Explanation on what type of probabilities is
    generated in the task.
