AC9M3P02 9

Conduct repeated chance experiments; identify and describe possible outcomes, record the results, recognise and discuss the variation

AC9M4P01 9

Describe possible everyday events and the possible outcomes of chance experiments and order outcomes or events based on their likelihood of occurring; identify independent or dependent events

AC9M5P01 9

List the possible outcomes of chance experiments involving equally likely outcomes and compare to those which are not equally likely

AC9M6P01 9

Recognise that probabilities lie on numerical scales of 0 – 1 or 0% – 100% and use estimation to assign probabilities that events occur in a given context, using common fractions, percentages and decimals
