PDF 2: Probability Basics

Probability Fundamentals

- Experiment: A procedure with uncertain results.

- Sample Space (S): Set of all possible outcomes.

- Event: A subset of sample space.

- Probability of event A: P(A) = n(A)/n(S)

- Complementary Rule: P(A') = 1 - P(A)

- Addition Rule: P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A n B)


PDF 2: Probability Basics

Examples and Solutions

Example 1: A die is rolled. Find P(even number).

Solution: S = {1,2,3,4,5,6}, A = {2,4,6} -> P(A) = 3/6 = 1/2

Example 2: A card is drawn. Find P(heart or king).

Solution: P(heart) = 13/52, P(king) = 4/52, P(heart n king) = 1/52

P = 13/52 + 4/52 - 1/52 = 16/52 = 4/13
