If the event in question is A and the probability of A occurring is P(A), then the probability of A not occurring is P(A')=1-P(A).
The probability that an event will occur plus the probability that it will not occur equals 1.
These events are complementary. Let P(A) = probability event will occur. Then the probability it will not occur is: 1 - P(A).
If the probability of an event occurring is p, then 1-p represents the probability of the same event not occurring. The value of p must lie between 0 and 1.
The probability of an event not occurring is 1 minus the probability of it occurring.
The probability of event A occurring given event B has occurred is an example of conditional probability.
The probability that an event will occur plus the probability that it will not occur equals 1.
These events are complementary. Let P(A) = probability event will occur. Then the probability it will not occur is: 1 - P(A).

If the probability of an event occurring is p, then 1-p represents the probability of the same event not occurring. The value of p must lie between 0 and 1.
Odds.
The complement of an event occurring is that it does not occur.
The probability of an event not occurring is 1 minus the probability of it occurring.
p/(1-p) the relation between both outcomes.
