Description

Hi there and you are welcome to this online revision platform, gcequiz.com. Here, we help students by providing them with numerous quizzes that they can use to better prepare for their end of year exams.

Probability is basically all about finding how likely a particular event is going to occur and we see this all around us in lotter, betting houses, weather forecasts etc. The probability scale of an event is from 0, which is an impossible event, to 1,which is a certain event.

In calculating the probability of an event, we need to know the number of times that event occurs and also the total number of events involved (also known as the sample space). Independent events are events whereby the outcome of one event does not in any way affect the outcome of the other events while on the other hand, mutually exclusive events are events which can not happen at the same time.

You can now go ahead and test your knowledge with our quizzes, Good luck.
