Sample Space Diagrams and Probability

By the end of this unit, students will be able to:

  1. understand the concept of sample space diagrams and their role in probability;
  2. create sample space diagrams to represent possible outcomes in different scenarios;
  3. calculate probabilities of events using sample space diagrams and basic counting techniques.

Curriculum Alignment: Key Stage 4: Probability

  • Calculate the probability of independent and dependent combined events, including using tree diagrams and other representations, and know the underlying assumptions
