Learning About Probability

Mr. Added conducts a probability experiment using coins and candy. He predicts outcomes based on the number of each type of item in a bowl, demonstrating probability concepts. He uses a tally chart and bar graph to visualize results, emphasizing the importance of consistent conditions in experiments. The video concludes with encouragement to conduct personal experiments.
