Probability is how we figure out how likely something is to happen. We can show it with this simple formula:

$$P(E) = \frac{\text{Number of good outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}$$

Let’s break down some important ideas:

• Outcomes: These are the possible results of an experiment or situation.

• Events: This is a group of outcomes.

• Sample Space: This is all the possible outcomes put together.

Understanding these ideas is really important. Probability helps us make decisions, assess risks, and see trends in data.

In Year 7, students can use probability in their everyday lives. This can help them think better and analyze situations more clearly.
