calculate relative frequencies from given or collected data to estimate probabilities of events involving “and”, inclusive “or” and exclusive “or”

Elaborations

• 1 understanding that relative frequencies from large data sets or long-run experiments can provide reliable measures of probability and can be used to make predictions of decisions
• 2 using Venn diagrams or two-way tables to estimate frequencies of events involving “and”, “or” questions
• 3 designing, testing and refining an algorithm used to determine relative frequencies from a generated data set, to estimate different probabilities
