How do you explain and calculate the probability of an event?
... To find the theoretical probability of an event occurring, use the formula: number of favourable outcomes Pr(event) = total number of outcomes The sample space of an experiment is a list of all the different outcomes possible and is written within curly brackets. It does not show whether each di ...
