About probability

In this post we will learn what is the probability and how it is used in the day to day.

It is our ability to "predict", to anticipate the events that will occur. Many times we fail, but many times we do not and, this ability has allowed us to get to where we are today, being able to predict both dangers and opportunities.
Probability is the mathematical calculation that evaluates the possibilities that exist for a thing to happen when chance intervenes.

That is why it is important to work on it and learn more about it, although it will not be difficult, because it is part of our innate reasoning. Look, I'm sure you know how to solve this problem:

Looking at this parking lot, what color do you think the next car will be that comes out of the parking lot?


probability
Indeed, it could be yellow, but there is much more probability that it is red, because there are many more red cars than yellow ones. 6 of the 7 parking cars are red.
But there is a probability that a yellow car will come out, 1 out of 7. However, the probability of a blue car coming out is 0, because none of the 7 cars parked is blue.


Do you think the issue of probability is interesting?
If so, I recommend you take a look at this video about probability to introduce concepts related to probability in your class.

This topic is usually very difficult to understand. So it will be interesting to use this type of videos so that students understand this best.
