•The sum of the data of dice faces that will appear when a pair of dice is shown a specified number of times (2 Dice +)
•The product of the data of dice faces that will appear when a pair of dice is shown a specified number of times (2 Dice `)
•When any number of balls labeled A, B, C, D, E, and F are placed into a box, data about how many times each ball will be drawn within a specified number of draws (Container)

You can access Probability in the Main application or the eActivity application. From either application, you can save Probability sessions in ClassPad memory and reopen the session for future use.
Probability sessions also can be inserted into an eActivity. For more information, see

Most Probability operations are the same in both the Main application and the eActivity application.
