00:02: We wanna find the number of possible outcomes. So what that means is if we were gonna randomly do one of these things, what are the number of ways that something could happen, or something could occur? So, if I'm rolling a die, well, how many possible outcomes are there? Well, a die has six sides, and each side has a number on it, so there are six outcomes. If I'm flipping a coin, there are two outcomes. I can get either heads or tails. If I'm choosing a card from a standard deck of cards, well, a standard deck of cards has 52 cards in it, so there are 52 outcomes. If I'm picking a letter from the alphabet, that's 26, because there are 26 letters in the alphabet. 00:47: Now, sometimes it's not something you intrinsically know. So if I'm drawing a marble from a bag containing three red, four blue, five green, and six yellow marbles, then what I need to do is I need to add up how many things there are, because that's gonna be the number of possible outcomes. So three plus four is seven, plus five is 12, plus six is 18. So that means there are 18 possible outcomes, or 18 ways that something could happen.
