Study Pug: Determining Probabilities Using Tree Diagrams and Tables

Cultivate the tree of knowledge using diagrams with two stages. Pupils create small tree diagrams to determine the sample space in compound probability problems. The lesson uses only two decision points to introduce tree diagrams. 

Choose to supplement your probability unit with this resource and you won't be disappointed with the outcome. Teach young mathematicians to organize information using tree diagrams and lists in order to determine the possible outcomes of...

Explore how to visually represent probability problems. Scholars watch a video to refresh their memories on tree diagrams. To finish the activity, they complete a worksheet of questions on this topic.

Use tree diagrams with multiple branches to calculate the probabilities of compound events. Pupils use tree diagrams to find the sample space for probability problems and use them to determine the probability of compound events in the...

Climb out on a branch to find probabilities. Using tree diagrams, the resource shows how to find compound probabilities when the events are not uniform. The video works through two different scenarios, one where the probabilities remain...

With so many toppings to chose from, make the ice cream truck combinations a fun math problem that teaches your learners about outcomes. The video introduces a tree diagram that allows your mathematicians to see how to create...

Sam bought tickets for a school raffle and wants to know if he has a good chance of winning. Help him find out with this step-by-step presentation on basic probability. Examples clearly model how to find the probability of simple events...

Deciding what to wear can be difficult, but it helps if you know your options. Use a tree diagram to solve word problems like the one in this video! Class members can watch and learn how to find and count possible outcomes (or outfits)....

Pick a card, any card... and then follow along with this step-by-step presentation as Sam from the Study Jams! crew determines what chance he has of drawing a jack from a deck of cards. This context serves to clearly model how fractions...

Using a tree diagram is a helpful way to visualize all the possibilities from different options. Watch the step by step process of using a tree diagram. [6:16]
