P(A) = n / NExplanation of Variables
| Symbol | Variable Name | Description & Role in Calculation |
|---|---|---|
| n | Favorable Outcomes | Occurrences matching the event condition. |
| N | Sample Space | Total possible mutually exclusive events. |
Worked Calculation Examples
Rolling a 6 on a Die
Scenario: 1 favorable out of 6 total.
1 / 6 = 16.67%.
