What I Know
Let us see how much do you know about playing a standard deck of
cards. This will guide you in learning the new lesson. If you got all the
answers right or at least 80% of the right answer, then you are now
ready to proceed to the next level. Enjoy!!!
a. an ace
2
b. a diamond
c. a face card
d. a black card
e. a queen
f. a red ace
The topic is about illustrating the probability of the union of two events.
This also focus the discussion on how the probability of the union of two
events is illustrated in real-life. You will discover how chances are taking in
two events. This consists of series of activities which made easier for you to
understand and master all the concepts.
What’s In
How much do you know about the new lesson? Did you
encounter the topic in your previous mathematics? Can you do
the activity below? I’m sure you can. Don’t worry because you
will be guided in doing the activity. Relax and breathe deeply.
You can do it.
Activity 1. My Sports
110 grade 10 students from Poctoy National High School are
interviewed if they are willing to join either volleyball or basketball in
the upcoming Intramural Meet.

comprehend, and don’t worry because you will be guided by
the sets of examples which truly directs you to the
development of the new concepts. Just take it easy.
Definition:
Compound events – defined as a composition of two or more other
events They can be formed in two ways:
Scenario 1. Jack rolled a fair die and wished to find the probability of
“the number that turns up is even or number greater than 3”
Solution:
5
B = {4, 5, 6} then the number that turns up is even and number
greater than 3, (A ∩ B) = {4, 6}.
3 3 2 4 2
P(A U B) = + - += or
6 6 6 6 3
Scenario 2. Jack rolled a fair die and wished to find the probability of
“the number that turns up is odd or even”
Solution:
Sample Space: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
P (A U B) = P(A) + P(B) – P (A ∩ B)
3 3 0 6
P (A U B) = + - += or 1
6 6 6 6
P (A U B) = P(A) + P(B)
3 3 6
P (A U B) = + = or 1
6 6 6

Scenario 3. Jack rolled a fair die and wished to find the probability of
the number divisible by 5 turns up or the number of odd turns up”.
P (A U B) = P(A) + P(B) – P (A ∩ B)
1 3 1 3 1
P (A U B) = + - += or
6 6 6 6 2
or P (A U B) = P(B)
3 1
P (A U B) = or
6 2
What Is It
You are now on the part where you can do the practice of the
concepts you learned from the discussion. Series of activities were
made for you so that you that you can do the practice differently.
Be calm and brave my friend.

A bowl contains 15 chips numbered 1
to 15. If a chip is drawn randomly
from the bowl, what is the probability
that it is;
a. 7 or 15?
b. 5 or a number divisible by 3?
c. even or divisible by 3?
Scenario 1
Scenario 2

tangram puzzle are place in urn and you are asked to pick the
pieces to complete the puzzle, what is the probability that you
pick a big triangle or a small triangle?
Basic Concepts:
The union of two events is the event that occurs if either or both
events occur.
The Probability of the union of two events A and B (A U B) can
be determine by: P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) – ( A ∩ B)
The union of two sets can be illustrated in many aspects of life
especially on decision-making.
What I Can Do
Let us see if you really learn from the concepts and activities
you have encountered previously. The activity below is a
proof of your learning. I’m sure you are familiar with the title
of the activity and I know you are well-versed in playing it.
Think deeply before answering “Fact or Bluff”
10
2. FACT or BLUFF. If A and B are two events, then the
probability of the union of the events is P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) –
P(A ∩ B).
8. FACT or BLUFF.
Brian likes to wear colored shirts. He has 10
shirts in the closet. Three of these are blue,
four are in different shades of red, and the
rest are of mixed or different colors. The
probability that he wear a red or a blue is 7/10.

Assessment
Are you now ready to take the test? Well I’m sure you are
now very well prepared, ready and excited to take the test.
So, let us start. Just set back and relax. Goodluck.

5. A single 6-sided die is rolled. What is the probability of
rolling a number greater than 3 or an even number?
A. 1 B. 2/3
C. 5/6 D. none of these
6. A student goes to the library to borrow books. The
probability that she checks out a Mathematics book is .40,
an English book is .30, both Mathematics and English book
is .20. What is the probability that the student checks out
Mathematics, English, or both
A. .40 B. .50
C. .60 D. None of these
