Today's findings from what's in the bag.
Description
Today we played what’s in the bag. For this game we used six marbles. Four green and two blue. We took turns predicting what colour marbles we would draw from the bag.
From the data we had (marble colours) I predicted the first marble would be green.
The probability of this happening was 4/6.
As we drew more marbles from the bag the probability of getting green marbles became lower.
3/5, 2/4 or 50% at this point there was an equal chance of picking either green or blue.
Summary
I found the game very fun and interesting. It showed me how to base my predictions on data so I had a good chance of knowing what color would be next.
