Express given probabilities as fractions, decimals, percentages, and using words. |
| (d) |
Analyze, generalize, and compare odds and probability including part-whole and part-part relationships. |
| (e) |
Determine the probability of an event, given the odds for or against. |
| (f) |
Explain, using examples, how decisions may be based on a combination of theoretical probability calculations, results of experimental probability, and subjective judgments. |
| (g) |
Solve situational questions that involve probability. |
| (h) |
Critique statements such as, "It is not possible to express odds as fractions". |
