11% chance that you will roll an 8 in any dice rolls
A die can come up showing numbers 1 2 3 4 5 6 and the probability of any number coming up is the same - one out of six. The chance of throwing a three is one out of six. In maths, this is called the probability of throwing a three, and given as a fraction of one, in this case one sixth 1/6. Chance and Probability mean the same thing, but chance is usually given as one out of six or two out of three or fifty/fifty for example. Probability is a mathematical thing and given as a fraction.A probability of 0 means no chance at all and a certainty has a probability value of 1. A mathematical probability of 0.99 means there is a 99% chance of success, or 99 out of a hundred.
No. There is a 60% chance that on a given day there will be no rain at a given location in the forecast area. But for two days that reduces to 36% ( .6x.6), and to 21% (.6x.6 x.6 ) for three days, etc., based on probability.
When you calculate the probability of an event without doing any experiments, it is called theoretical probability. It is based on mathematical calculations using known information and assumptions about the event.
1/2 of a chance since there are two sides to any coins it is always a half chance.
