Question

A probability is a number between 0 and 1 that reflects the likelihood of some outcome. According to the classical approach to assigning probability, the probability that an outcome occurs is interpreted as:

Answer 1

Answer:

Probability of an event $=\frac{\textrm{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\textrm{Total number of outcomes}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the classical approach to assigning probability, if an experiment has $n$ simple outcomes, this method  would assign a probability of $\frac{1}{n}$ to each outcome. In  other words, each outcome is assumed to have an equal  probability of occurrence.

So, probability of an event $=\frac{\textrm{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\textrm{Total number of outcomes}}$
