Teach it
Where it is taught, with guided notes, practice, homework, an exit ticket and an interactive Teacher Deck.
Examples
- A fair die: P(1) = P(2) = ... = P(6) = 1/6, summing to 1.
- A fair coin and an equal spinner (4 equal sections) are also uniform.
Key rule
Every outcome getting the same probability is what makes it uniform.
Memory hook
Every outcome, exactly the same odds.
