This math topic focuses on basic probability concepts using shapes and colors. Students practice calculating the probability of drawing a specific shape, of a particular color, from a set that contains multiple shapes in different colors. They learn how to express these probabilities as percentages. Each problem provides an image of a collection of colored shapes and asks for the probability of selecting a given shape and color combination. The answers are presented in multiple-choice format, requiring students to calculate and select the correct percentage. This is part of an introductory unit on single-event probability.
