Question

In theoretical probability, P(event) = __________________________________

Answer 1

In theoretical probability, the probability of an event \( P(\text{event}) \) is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:

\[
P(\text{event}) = \frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of possible outcomes}}
\]

This formula assumes that all outcomes are equally likely.
