Exam points

  • Multiply a probability estimate by the population or number of trials to calculate an expected frequency.
  • Use experimental relative frequency or a sample proportion to estimate an expected count in a larger group.
  • Interpret the expected value in context and report a sensible whole-number frequency.

CAIE IGCSE Mathematics Core C8.2.2 Calculate Expected Frequencies Questions question 1

[Maximum number: 1]

Flo has a bag of counters.
She picks a counter at random from the bag.
The probability that she picks a green counter is 0.52 .

Flo picks one counter from the bag at random, records the colour and replaces it in the bag. She does this 200 times.
