Problems Involving AND & OR Worksheets

What Are Common AND and OR Probabilities? Probabilities are an important concept in mathematics. It helps in making predictions about outcomes such as weather, floods, games, and even lotteries. It is a form of mathematical calculation that gives us a result that shows us the chances of occurrence of a specific event. In probability, the two terms, AND, OR, play a crucial role. The correct usage of these terms determines the accuracy of the results. In probability, AND shows that the desired outcome is expected to fulfill both conditions at the same time. OR means that the desired outcome has to follow one condition at a time, or both conditions at the same time.

    This lesson focuses on determining the probability of real world situations. If you randomly choose a letter in the word "HIGHEST", find the probability that you choose a T or H. Since the word contains 1 T, it means T has one possibility to be selected out of seven. Since the word contains 2 H, it means H has two possibilities to be selected out of seven. Probability of selecting T or H, P(A) = 3/7.
