Compare the probability of events with Equal Chance Clash!

Students will select the correct comparative symbol for each pair of probability images. The images show a selection of coloured shapes inside a cup. The questions on each slide ask students to determine which cup has the greatest probability of achieving a certain outcome.

Some comparisons may have an equal chance at achieving the outcome.

There are 12 comparisons in total which increase in complexity as you progress.

Use this PowerPoint activity as a whole class warm-up or wrap-up when learning about equal probability events. Alternatively, use the digital activity as part of your small group instruction, having students create the probability comparisons with counters and shapes.
