3. Events

Events must be understood for you to get any of the questions. Basically any statistic problem you will face on the CLEP exam with be an event. Take a look at the following websites to find out what an event is and the difference between simple and compound events.

Event and other statistical terms

This site can get into rather complex probability but if you understand it all you should be fine with most of the probability questions. My suggestion is to at least look over the basic concepts at the top as they explain events and the difference between simple and compound events.

Simple and Compounds Events

This site is good for explaining simple and compound events. Note that they use single events instead of simple but they are the same thing.

This site has 4 experiments that show you how to approach problems dealing with random events such as dice. There are also 5 free practice questions.
