Maths Probabilty Task

Malo e le lei mathematicians!

You have been learning about probability. This tells us how likely or not something is to happen.

For example:

- it is certain that the sun will rise in the morning.
- it is very likely that you will come to school tomorrow.
- there is an even chance landing on heads when I toss a coin.
- it is possible that is will rain.
- it is very unlikely to snow in Auckland.
- it is impossible to fly without help.

Your task is to put these events in order of likeliness, starting from certain and finishing with impossible. Use this sentence structure to help you frame your answers:

" It is ________ that ___________. "

Events:

I choose a card from a pack of cards and it is red.
I roll 10 dice and they all land on 6.
The All Blacks will win the Rugby World Cup.
Christmas day will happen on the 25th of December.
Mr Barratt will come to school on Monday with a neck like a giraffe.
Scotland will win the Rugby World Cup.
Mrs Stowers will watch the television tonight.
There will be 5 people absent from room 19 tomorrow.

Remember to use the probability words in bold from the examples.
