The ratio of the chance of that event happening divided by all possible events. Chance of rolling a 6 is 1 (only one side has a 6) divided by the 6 possible events.

Probability is a measure of the likelihood of a given event and is a number in the range [0, 1]. That value, if expressed as a ratio, is a probability ratio. It can also be expressed as a percentage or a decimal fraction.
Another name for experimental probability is empirical probability. This is the ratio of the number of outcomes in which a specified event occurs to the total number of trials.
Probability is described as the likelihood of a particular event happening. For example, say you are betting on a horse race, each horse has a particular probability of winning.The likelihood of an event occuringThe proportion of times an event occurs over a large number of trialsA ratio of successful outcomes to total possible outcomesFor a random event, the proportion of times an event occurs over a large nuber of trials
There is no single word. It is the "probability of that event" (four words).
The probability of an event is a number in the interval [0, 1]. It can be expressed as a fraction or ratio or as a percentage. Furthermore, if the probability of an event is p, where 0<p<1, and if q = 1-p, then the probability of the event can also be expressed as odds of p to q in favour.
