Teacher’s Activity
A. Preliminary Activity
1) Greetings Good morning, 10-Ashton!
I am Teacher Ericka…
and I am Teacher Rodelyn.
We will be your class facilitators for today’s discussion.
How are you feeling? Are you ready to listen and learn another
mathematical concept?
2) Classroom Rules If so, may I remind everyone of the following rules:
a. Avoid doing stuff that are not related to our subject;
b. Listen when someone is talking.
c. Raise your hand for clarifications and questions.
Understood?
3) Checking of May I know who is/are the absent from the class today.
Attendance
Thank you.
B. Motivation Before we introduced you to our topic, let us first have an activity.
This activity is entitled “Toss Coin Experiment”. In this activity,
you all have the opportunity to flip a coin and record the
outcomes.
The activity will be done by pair. Each pair will provide a coin for
this experiment.
The goal of this activity is just to know the possible number of
getting a Head and a Tail. You will be given 5 chances to flip a
coin.
TOSS COIN EXPIREMENT
Grab a coin and look closely.
Flip the coin 5x and record your answers!
HEAD
TAIL
How did you find the activity?
When you toss the coin? How many head did you get? And how
many tails?
Okay, Vey Good.
C. Presentation of the So, our topic today is Probability of Simple Events. Let us first
Lesson define what is a probability and a simple event. When we say
Probability, it is the measure of how likely an event is to occur.
The more likely an event is to occur, the higher its probability.
The less likely an event is to occur, the lower its probability.
Simple Event is an event where all the possible outcomes are
equally likely to occur.
So, when we say Probability of simple events this are the simple
events in probability where there is no such complicated
computation. The formula for this is,
¿ of favorable outcomes
P(E)=
¿ of all possible outcomes
Where,
P- stands for probability
E- stands for the event
Example: What is the probability of getting a head in tossing a
coin?
In every coin that we have there is only a Head and a Tail. To our
problem the event here is getting the head, and our experiment is
tossing a coin. So, in our formula our favorable outcomes will be
the number of head to be toss in a coin, so we only have one. In
the number of possible outcomes, we have two which is the Head
and a Tail. So, it will be like this,
1
P(head)=
2
Always remember that our probability is represented by a
fraction, it is important to always express in lowest term. So ½ is
already in lowest term.
What if we change the question, like we are to find the probability
of getting a Tail in tossing a coin?
So, like what we did in getting the Head, the process is still the
same and the answer is still the same.
P(tail)= ½
D. Guided Practice
III. EVALUATION
Get a ½ crosswise paper. Answer the following. You are given 10 minutes to answer this quiz.
1. If you flip a fair coin, what is the probability of getting heads?
2. If a letter is chosen at the random from the word MATHEMATICS, what is the probability
that the letter chosen is A?
3. A bag contains 5 red marbles, 3 blue marbles, and 2 green marbles. What is the probability
of drawing a blue marble at random?
