Subject Integration
We are experiencing a global health problem. We are all at risk of catching
diseases, hence, health professionals issued protocols. It is upon us to follow and be
100% safe or 100% expose to germs and viruses.
Every day we always encounter events that are equally to occur. Will it rain or will
the sun shine?
Probability took a big part in our decisions based on the changes that are likely to
happen.
D. Discussing new Probability – possibility. the extent to which an event is likely to occur, measured
concepts and by the ratio of favorable cases to the whole number of cases possible.

skills # 1
Probability of Simple Events
(EXPLORE)
The probability of simple events is finding the probability of a single event
occurring. When finding the probability of an event occurring, we will use the
formula:
number of favorable outcomes
P(E)=
number of total possible outcomes
The probability of simple event is the ratio that compares the number of favorable
outcomes to the number of possible outcomes.

Probability Rules
1. The probability of any event is a number (either a fraction, a decimal, or
a percent)
2. If an event will never happen, then its probability is 0.
Example: When a single die is rolled, find the probability of getting an 8.
Sneeze with eyes open
Living underwater
A dog flying
3. If an event is sure to happen, then the probability is 1.
Example: When a single die is rolled, what is the probability of getting a
number less than 7?
Earth still exists tomorrow.
Heart beats.
Celebration of Independence Day is certain at June 9.
E. Discussing new Examples:
concepts and a. Let there be a basket with 3 balls: Red, Green, Orange. If you want to
practicing new pick a red ball, we can calculate the probability of picking a red ball.

(EXPLORE) you select one fruit at random. Find each probability.
c. If a letter is chosen at random from the word SAN AGUSTIN, find the
probability that the letter chosen is a vowel.
d. Find the probability that the letter to be selected is consonant if a letter is
to be selected from the word “FILIPINO.”
F. Developing Group Activity
mastery (Leads to The class will be divided into four groups. Each group have assigned problem to
formative solve. They need to find the probability of different subject areas that is given. Each
assessment 3) group is required to make a yell in connection with the Independence Day and after
(EXPLAIN) they finish their task, each group will present their yell and that is the sign that they
are done.
Group 1: Twisters
The longest known Filipino word in a dictionary is
“Pinakanakapagpapabagabag-damdamin” which means the most emotionally
disturbing (or upsetting) thing. What is the probability of this word on having
vowels?
Group 2: Nutrition Month
Next month, there will be a Nutrition month in SAIS. Many students
participated in the event. There are Vegetable cooking contest, Dessert Making,
Healthy Baking, and Fruits Curving and designing? What is the probability that
each student joined in Vegetable Cooking Contest?
Group 3: Historians
The Philippines had sixteen presidents. From the first who become a president
was General Emilio Aguinaldo and up to our current President Rodrigo Duterte.
What is the probability that we had female presidents?
Group 4: Talking about Sports

DEMO
Review:
1. Flipping a coin.
Answer: { Head, Tail}
2. Rolling a die.
Answer: { 1,2,3,4,5,6}
3. Selecting vowels in the alphabet.
Answer: {A,E,I,O,U}
What is probability?
Answer #1: Probability is the chance that something will happen.
Answer #2: Probability is the measure of how likely an event is to occur. The more likely an event is to occur, the
higher its probability. The less likely an event is to occur, the lower its probability.
Probability Line:
Certain - the event is definitely going to happen
Likely- the event will probably happen, but not definitely
Unlikely- the event will probably not happen, but it might
Impossible- the event is definitely not going to happen

Generalizarion:
1. What is probability?
2. How will you able to solve a probability of simple events?
Answer #1: How to find the probability of a simple event:
Group 1: Twisters
The word “Pinakanakapagpapabagabag-damdamin” has 32 letters .
There are 14 vowels
Favorable outcomes (vowels): 14 vowels
Possible outcomes: 32 letters
number of favorable outcomes 14 7
P ( E )= = = ∨0.4375 or 0.44 or 44%
total number of possible outcomes 32 16
Therefore, the probability of the word “Pinakanakapagpapabagabag-damdamin” on having vowels
7
is ∨0.4375 .
16
Group 2: Nutrition Month Fair
Favorable outcomes: Vegetable cooking Contest
There is only one favorable outcomes.
Possible outcomes:
(1) Vegetable Cooking Contest (3) Healthy baking
(2) Dessert Making (4) Fruit Curving and Designing
The total possible outcomes is 4.
number of favorable outcomes 1
P(E)= =
total number of possible outcomes 4
1
Therefore, the probability that each person ride in Vegetable Cooking Contest is ∨0.25. or 25%

Group 3: Historians
The Philippines had sixteen presidents. From the first who become a president was General Emilio
Aguinaldo and up to our current President Rodrigo Duterte. We had 2 female presidents. What is the
probability that we had female presidents?
Favorable outcomes: We had 2 female former Presidents.
Possible outcomes: The Philippines had 16 Presidents.
number of favorable outcomes 2 1
P ( E )= = = ∨0.125
total number of possible outcomes 16 8
1
Therefore, the probability that we had female Presidents is ∨0.125 or 0.13 or 13%
