Year 10 · Probability

Tree Events

This drill is about reading the question. When you see P(same colour) or P(at least one blue) or P(both red), which branches of the tree are you actually being asked about?

You'll see a tree diagram and a probability description. Click every branch (leaf) that matches the description, then hit Check. The tool will tell you which ones you got right and which ones you missed.

The phrases you'll meet

Three tree shapes

The drill walks through trees with increasing complexity:

This is a comprehension drill, not a calculation drill. You don't compute the probability — you identify which branches the description is asking about. Once you can do that confidently, the calculation is just adding up the leaf probabilities.

Tree Events Mastered

You've practised translating probability descriptions into branches on a tree diagram. The vocabulary is now in your hands.

Quick reference — what each phrase usually means:
"Both/All [X]" — every draw is X. One branch (or one path).
"Same colour" — every draw matches. One branch per colour.
"Different colours" — branches where at least one draw differs.
"At least one [X]" — one or more X's. Often easier as 1 − P(no X).
"No [X]" — zero X's. Branches that avoid X entirely.
"Exactly one [X]" — only one X. Not zero, not two.
"[X] then [Y]" — order matters. One specific path.
