There are approximately 440 m&m’s in a 14oz bag of m&m’s. The colors are distributed below:
Orange- 95 Red- 60 Green- 65
Yellow- 70 Brown- 55 Blue- 95
You draw one m &m from the bag…
1. Which Color M&M is least likely to be drawn from the bag?
2. What is the probability of drawing a yellow M&M?
3. What is the probability of drawing a blue M&M?
4. What is the probability of drawing a red or green M&M?
5. What is the probability of drawing an M&M that is not red?
6. What is the probability of drawing an M&M that is not brown or orange?
7. Would you be more likely to draw an M&M that is not yellow or an M&M that is not blue? Explain your answer.
8. If three more yellow M&Ms were added to the bag, what would be the probability of drawing a yellow M&M?
9. What is the probability of drawing an M&M from the bag? Explain

Ex 1: Find the probability of tossing two dice and getting a 3 on each one.
Ex 2: Your wallet has a 6 nickels, 8 pennies, 4 quarters, and 3 dimes.
a) What’s the probability of choosing a penny & a dime?
b) What’s the probability of choosing a quarter & a nickel?
Practice:
1) If two coins are tossed, what is the probability of getting exactly two heads?
2) Matt flipped a coin, and spun the spinner below. What’s the probability of getting a red on the spinner and tails on the coin.
3) Charlie picks a card from the cards below, and rolls a di. What’s the probability of getting a King or Ace & rolling a 1?

Permutations and CombinationsPermutations – the number of different ways that a certain number of objects can be arranged in order from a larger number of objects.
Calculator: math, prb, #2 nPr where n= number of objects & r= size of group
Example 1: 100 students are participating in a science fair where a gold, silver, and bronze medal will be awarded. How many ways can the top three places be filled?
Example 2: How many 3 letter “words” can we make with the letters in the word LOVE?
Example 3: On the first day of school, Miss Sciandra has 3 students in her geometry class that need to be moved into the first row to see better. If there are 6 front seats, how many ways can she arrange the 3 students?
Combinations – the number of different ways that a certain number of objects can be chosen as a group from a larger number of objects.
Calculator: math, prb, #3 nCr where n= number of objects & r= size of group
Example 1: How many groups of 3 students can be selected in a class of 30 students?
