ProbabilityChoose level of difficultyRonan is designing a game.

He has two sets of discs laid face down on a table.

The first set of five discs are labelled 1, 3, 5, 7, 9The second set of four discs are labelled 2, 4, 6, 8

Players turn over one disc, at random, from each set and add the numbers together.

Ronan uses the game to raise money for charity.Each player pays 20p to play the game.If a player gets a total of exactly 13 they win a bar of chocolate.It costs Ronan 50p for each bar of chocolate.

If 100 people play the game, show that Ronan should expect to raise £12.50 for charity.

ProbabilityHelp

Step 1: Fill in sample spacediagram.

Two discs are added together so we must draw a sample space diagram.

The first set of five discs are labelled 1, 3, 5, 7, 9The second set of four discs are labelled 2, 4, 6, 8

Players turn over one disc, at random, from each set and add the numbers together.

ProbabilityHelp

Step 2: Work out theprobability ofgetting exactly 13.

How many possible numbers are there?How many 13’s are there?

Each player pays 20p to play the game.If a player gets a total of exactly 13 they win a bar of chocolate.It costs Ronan 50p for each bar of chocolate.

If 100 people play the game, show that Ronan should expect to raise £12.50 for charity.

Step 3: Work out how much money he takes.

100 people play the game each paying 20p.

Each player pays 20p to play the game.If a player gets a total of exactly 13 they win a bar of chocolate.It costs Ronan 50p for each bar of chocolate.

If 100 people play the game, show that Ronan should expect to raise £12.50 for charity.

ProbabilityHelp

Step 4: Work out how many people you expect to win.

Probability of winning multiplied by number of players.

Each player pays 20p to play the game.If a player gets a total of exactly 13 they win a bar of chocolate.It costs Ronan 50p for each bar of chocolate.

If 100 people play the game, show that Ronan should expect to raise £12.50 for charity.

Probability of winning = 20

Step 5: Work out cost of prizes.

Number of winners multiplied by cost of prize.

Each player pays 20p to play the game.If a player gets a total of exactly 13 they win a bar of chocolate.It costs Ronan 50p for each bar of chocolate.

Number of winners = 15

ProbabilityHelp

Step 6: Work out money raised.

Cost of prizes subtracted from money taken.

If 100 people play the game, show that Ronan should expect to raise £12.50 for charity.

Cost of prizes = £7.50

Money taken = £20
