Probability Puzzles

How to play Probability Puzzles

1. Count favorable outcomes for a simple random draw.
2. Read the prompt carefully and choose an answer, or type into the answer field.
3. After checking, read the explanation. Use “Next round” to continue.
4. Complete ten rounds for a score out of 100. Restart creates a fresh session.

A worked example

What is the probability of drawing red? 3 red counters and 4 blue counters

the answer is 3/7. Favorable outcomes divided by all outcomes.

A useful way to practice

Write down what is known and what is only assumed. Look for constraints that eliminate possibilities, then test a small next step. A wrong answer is useful information about the strategy you chose.
