Probability
Probability quantifies the likelihood of events occurring, essential for solving problems involving chance, games, and risk assessment.
Core concept
The probability of an event is calculated as favourable outcomes divided by total possible outcomes, ranging from 0 (impossible) to 1 (certain).
How it works
A sample space lists all possible outcomes of an experiment, essential for correctly calculating probabilities.
Why it matters
For mutually exclusive events (cannot happen together), the probability of either occurring is the sum of their individual probabilities.
Key detail
Understanding probability helps us make informed decisions and predictions in various real-life situations, from games to risk assessment.
