Abstract
During the teaching of probability theory, a problem may appear whose solution requires the use of methods that are unfamiliar to secondary school students. In this paper, examples of methods that can resolve this difficulties are demonstrated, which could in future allow school students to tackle and solve a wide variety of problems involving probability.
