Probability, Mean
Key Stage: 2 ★★★
Tania and Derek roll a dice. If the number is odd, Tania wins. If the number is a 6, Derek wins. Who is more likely to win? Can you make the game fair?
This problem gives learners the opportunity to describe and predict outcomes, and consider the meaning of 'fair'. The interactivity simulates the die-throwing, so data can be collected quickly and easily.
This resource has comprehensive teachers' notes and resources, linked from the problem page. This includes possible approaches and key questions, as well as possible support and extensions.
