... Probability • The ‘probability’ of an event A in an experiment is supposed to measure how frequently A is about to occur if we make many trials. • If we flip a coin, then heads H and tails T will appear about equally often – we say that H and T are ‘equally likely’. • Similary, for a regular shaped ...

... the result is an even number. What is the probability that it is a 6? Well, our intuition tells us that it should be 1/3, since the only possible outcomes are 2, 4, and 6, and they should be equally likely. On the other hand, the probability that the result is, say, a 5, is 0, because we know that t ...
