Probability

Probability is the possibility of some events to happen or the belief that something will happen.

What is probability in Math?
In Mathematics, when you do an experiment the possibility of getting some results is called probability.
For example, there is probability of getting 6 in tossing  a dice.

Calculating probability formula: If there is a set of N elements , we can define a sub-set of n favorable event where n is less than or equal to N.Then probability is calculated as P = n/N. All the other formula of probability are derived from this formula.

Next time we will learn how to solve probability problems using the above formula with many examples.
