Frog Probability Fun!

Consider a pond with a population of bright, colorful frogs. Each frog has an equal chance of jumping onto a lily pad. If there are 10 lily pads and 3 frogs named Frodo, Froge, and Frogbert, the probability of Froge landing on any specific pad is 1/10.

Key Concepts

• Sample Space: The set of all possible outcomes.
• Event: A specific outcome or group of outcomes.
• Independent Events: When the outcome of one event does not affect the other.
