Abstract

The problem-solving activities outlined here add to the collection of applications- at the middle school level and above- dealing with basic probability concepts.

Solving problems of the type that follow reinforces these concepts and gives students practice in the problem-solving techniques of counting, finding patterns, using diagrams, and generalizing.
