20 points and brainliest! Tree Diagrams
1. For what type of situation is a tree diagram a suitable way to organize information?
2. Explain how to read a tree diagram to determine the possible outcomes for that situation.

 Use a tree diagram for conditional probability

The first branch lists the elements in the starting field-- how many items or outcomes. Like heads or tails, how many of each color of marbles or socks, etc. The next branch shows the set of outcomes from the first event and what is available for the next event. The branches are labeled with fractions to tell the chances of each outcome.

Step-by-step explanation:

A tree diagram is good for determining probability when there are multiple steps in the "draw" and multiple outcomes-- sometimes chances of event a and b "this and that" or event a or b "this or that"

You use the fractions on each branch to calculate the final outcome. If it's a and b, you multiply the fractions on each "trail" you follow through the branches to get the defined final outcome.

If it is a or b, you add the fractions to get the probability of the defined final outcome.
