Probability

Probability is the likelyhood or "chance" an event will happen. There are two different forms of probability, Theoretical and Experimental probability. Theoretical probability it like a prediction while Experimental probability is when you try it and the actual results.

There is many ways to show probability, but its most likely shown with fractions and percent. Fraction is like 1/2. It means part of the whole. There is 1 part of the 2, or the whole. Percent or percentage, is always out of 100. It ends with the sign %. %- this means out of 100. Notice how the numbers in 100 are in the sign. 1= 0= small 0 0= small 0 100 = %

A possible way of showing probability is a probability tree. This can be really helpful when organizing your work.

There's always 2 parts in a possibility equation, Favorable outcome and Total possible outcome(s). Favorable outcome is the result that is expected to happen. Total possible outcome(s) is the number of end result that can happen.
