Probability is chapter 14 of 14 in Bihar Board Class 10 Mathematics (गणित). Below are the topics the paper draws from, the question types that come up again and again, and a free practice test on this chapter alone.
Topics in this chapter
- Theoretical (classical) probability
- Equally likely outcomes and sample space
- Complementary events: P(E) + P(not E) = 1
- Problems on coins, dice, cards and balls
- Sure event, impossible event and range of probability
What examiners usually ask
- Two dice are thrown together; find the probability that the sum of the numbers is 8
- One card is drawn from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards; find the probability of getting a red face card
- A bag has 5 red and 8 white balls; if a ball is drawn at random, find the probability that it is not red

Write the sample space size first (36 for two dice, 52 for cards) and know that there are 12 face cards and 26 red cards; many errors come from counting the king, queen and jack of only one colour.
