Getting Started

By Fatmawati Fatmawati

What is probability?

Probability is how likely something will occur.
Think of probability of the chance something can or cannot happen.

Remember:

Probability is the chance something will happen on a scale from 0 to 1.

How to read the probability scale:

Impossible (0%): something cannot occur
Unlikely: there is a small percentage of occurring
Even Chance (50%): there is a 50% chance it can occur and 50% it cannot
Likely: there more of a chance something occurring than not
Certain (100%): it will happen
