The chances of that?

Its been non-stop probability Vs Chance Vs likelihood in Room 4 this week...

In a heated game of 'Deal or No Deal', Jonny was offered $90,000, but opted to take the risk and settle for a measly $15,000! Was it just bad luck or the probability just against him. Later discussion and calculation realised the chance of succeeding was against him, but yet he took the gamble!

Shantelle defeated odds of 1/64, to beat 5 contestants in a row... Twice... At line bob-tag. Either a master professional or some kind of sorcery at work!

We calculated the odds of Guess Who? And who really is the best person to choose to make your opposition take the most amount of guesses!

We investigated how much chance is there in rolling two dice and calculating the cumulative score. The answers surprised us all, but after serious discussion, the probability made complete sense.

We are currently designing our own mathematical problem-solving events, and set to present to one another. Time will tell whether we can confidently explain the likelihood of each outcome?!
