Calculate Probability as a Fraction Worksheets

How to Calculate the Probability (as a Fraction) - In mathematics, the concept of probability is very important because it is frequently used in our daily lives. So, what is the probability? Probability is a mathematical calculation of chances of an event taking place. It helps in predicting the outcomes in games, including Poker and even in a lottery. Calculation of probability is simple, easy, and nothing to be afraid of. There are two ways of calculating probability, and these include fractions and percentages. To calculate probability in a fraction, you need the total number of possible outcomes, total element in a sample space, and the total number of desired outcomes. When you divide the number of desirable outcomes by a total number of outcomes, you will get the final probability. P(desired event) = (N(desired outcomes))/(N(total number of outcomes)) You have to place the numbers into the formula and simplify it. It will give you a probability as a fraction.
