Check understanding

  • Conduct a coin-toss experiment, record results in a frequency table, and calculate relative frequencies
  • Compare experimental results with theoretical probability and explain discrepancies
  • Predict that relative frequency approaches theoretical probability as the number of trials increases
“If your child rolls a die 60 times and records the results, can they compare how often each number came up with what they'd expect in theory — and explain why they might not match perfectly?”
