    The document discusses probability and how it is used to measure the likelihood of events occurring. Probability is used to describe the chance of outcomes from experiments like coin tosses or dice rolls. For a coin toss, the probability of heads or tails is 1/2, while for a single die the probability of any number from 1 to 6 is 1/6.

    PROBABILITY

    How likely something is to happen.

    Many events can't be predicted with total certainty. The best we can
    say is how likely they are to happen, using the idea of probability.

    The probability of an event is the measure of the chance that the


    event will occur as a result of an experiment.
    TOSSING A COIN

    Head (H) =
    ½
    Tail (T) =
    ½
    THROWING DICE

    When a single die is thrown, there are six possible outcomes: 


    1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
    The probability of any one of them is  1/6
