About this worksheet

Why we built it

Year 9 probability mostly distinguishes "with replacement" from "without replacement" in two-step experiments. These worksheets give your student varied tree diagrams, tables and worded scenarios so the rule for adjusting the second draw becomes automatic.

What's covered

Sub-skills your student will practise

  • Tree diagrams with and without replacement
  • Tables for two-step experiments
  • And vs or probability questions
  • Calculating relative frequency from data
  • Designing simulations to estimate probabilities

Frequently asked

Questions parents ask about probability

What does 'two-step experiment' mean?

A probability experiment with two stages - flip a coin then roll a die, or pick two cards in sequence. Year 9 introduces tree diagrams for these, with branches for each stage.

What's 'with replacement' vs 'without replacement'?

With replacement: the first item is returned before the second draw, so each stage's probability stays the same. Without replacement: the first item is kept, so the second-stage probability shifts.

How does Year 9 handle 'and' / 'or' probabilities?

P(A and B) = P(A) x P(B) for independent events. P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B) using the inclusion-exclusion rule. Year 9 introduces both formally.

What's relative frequency?

The proportion of times an outcome actually occurred in a real experiment. Tossing a coin 100 times and getting 47 heads gives a relative frequency of 47/100 = 0.47. Long-run relative frequencies approach theoretical probabilities.

Want a real plan for the term?

Worksheets are great for repetition. A Tuterly tutor can spot the specific moves your student keeps getting wrong and fix them in one or two sessions.
