Demystifying - Drawing a tree diagram

Drills

One fork per stage, a probability on every branch, and each fork totalling one.

Author note — to cover

Draw probability trees with one fork per stage and a probability on every branch, each fork summing to 1; complete missing branches by complements; fractions and decimals. One and two stages. Both tiers. Route calculations follow on the sibling pages; frequency trees carry counts and have their own page. (P6, P8)
