What is theoretical probability?

• The likelihood of an event happening based on all possible outcomes, calculated as the number of favorable outcomes divided by the total number of possible outcomes.

• The probability of an event based on past occurrences and historical data.

• The chance of an event occurring in a specific situation without considering all possible outcomes.

• The likelihood of an event happening based on subjective judgment rather than mathematical calculation.

What is the formula for calculating probability?

• Probability = (Number of favorable outcomes) / (Total number of possible outcomes)

• Probability = (Total number of possible outcomes) / (Number of favorable outcomes)

• Probability = (Number of unfavorable outcomes) / (Total number of possible outcomes)

• Probability = (Number of favorable outcomes) + (Total number of possible outcomes)
