AC9M6P02
Conduct repeated chance experiments and run simulations with an increasing number of trials using digital tools; compare observations with expected results and discuss the effect on variation of increasing the number of trials
AC9M6P01
Recognise that probabilities lie on numerical scales of 0 - 1 or 0% - 100% and use estimation to assign probabilities that events occur in a given context, using common fractions, percentages and decimals |
