What is Probability?

Probability measures the likelihood that a possible, but not guaranteed event, will happen.

The probability theory is a branch of mathematics that focuses on the analysis of random events. According to Britannica, the outcome of a random occurrence cannot be predicted before it occurs. However, it may be any one of possible outcomes. The actual outcome is deemed to be determined by chance.
