The original concept of Probability was created by two mathematicians from France in the 16th century.The credit for creating the basics of probability goes to both of them.The concept was further extended in the 18th century by another mathematician named Laplace.Predicting the events in the real world is difficult.We try to make an intelligent guess by defining the probability of the event occurring.

It is important for students to understand the concepts of Probability as it will be used in their career in the future when they work for corporate or government agencies.The probability will be used in making decisions.Instead of making decisions based on chance it is always better to use a mathematical formula.Surprises and unpredictable outcomes are part of the events that occur around us.Multiple types of outcomes could happen at an event.

It's the probability that helps determine the most likely outcome.If the result of the process can be defined it is an experiment.If an experiment can be predicted in advance it is called a Deterministic Experiment.The non-deterministic experiment is also called Random Experiment.We know all the possible outcomes of a random experiment but we can predict which ones will happen.

Sample space is the collection of all the possible outcomes when there are many possible outcomes.There are two types of sample points a countable number and uncountable number.The number of sample points can't be further separated.There are either a finite number of sample points or an infinite number of sample points that can be counted.We need to know about the following things before we understand the definition of probability.

A sample space is indicated by S.The number of elements in the sample space is not indicative of the outcome.The sample space is Head tail.The sample space holds 2 elements.When two coins are tossed at the same time the sample space is known as HH.

When 3 coins are tossed at the same time the sample space is HHH HHT HTH HTT TTH TTT THH THT.A sample space contains 8 elements.Two coins are tossed the same as one coin being thrown twice.It's not necessary to get confused with these statements.One coin thrown three times is also called one coin thrown three times.

The sample space for a die is 1 2 3 4 5 6.6 are the number of sample space.The sample space is 11 12 13 14 15 16 21 22 23 24 25 26 31 32 33 34 35 36 41 42 43 44 45 46 51 52 53.Six elements are included in the sample space.2n is the formula to find the number of spaces in coins.

The sample space size is four.The sample space size is 8 if we use the n as 3 and 4 if we use the n as 4.To find the number of sample spaces you have to use a formula.A sample space size is 6 if we put n.The sample space size could be 36 if we put the n as 2.
