Possible combinations

Probability (also read about Permutation and Combination) is a concept of mathematics which works based on the logical ability. It means that probability is a concept which is used to estimate the outcome of several numbers of procedures. Suppose there is a work which is done by any person again and again, then the question is how to we calculate the outcome of the work. At that time we use the concept of probability. In the mathematical definition we can say that if an event can occur in n ways and a particular result can occur in m ways, then the probability of the particular result occurring is m / n.

Suppose there is a boy, who tossing a coin then there is a two possible outcome. These possible outcomes are Head and tails. In the same aspect we can say that there is a die which is thrown by somebody then there is a six possible outcome which is one, two, three, four, five and six.
Suppose in the case there is a boy who throws the two dies together at a time. Then the possible outcome will be thirty six. It means that there are thirty six possible outcomes form throwing the two dies together. The collections of all estimation of these possible outcomes are known as possible combination. Possible combinations are the collection of total number of possible outcome which defines that what will be the outcome form the event. It means that an event generate the outcome form the available list of possible outcome. Now we show you the some of the example that helps in understanding the concept of possible combinations:
Example: Suppose in the game of playing card, a card is picked up from the pack of card. Now we need to find what will be the possible combination of the outcomes for the red card by applying possible combinations formula?
Solution: As we know that there are only thirteen red cards are available in the pack of playing cards from one to king. Then the possible combination of picking a red card is only thirteen cards. So we can say that the possible combination for a particular game event is thirteen. In the next session we are going to discuss Grade IV, Bar or line graphs.

In upcoming posts we will discuss about Mean and Multiplication and Division in Grade V. Visit our website for information on Andhra Pradesh geography question paper
