When you are asked what is the probability of drawing "thing a" when you have only the same amount of "thing b," is called an equally likely event. For example: In a hat you have 8 black marbles and 8 black marbles. Since there the same amount of both, the chance of picking a black marble is 50% and picking a blue marble is 50%. This is an equally likely event.

What is a chance of 5050 like what does it mean?
The 50/50 chance means there are two outcomes, and each on is equally likely. A coin has a 50% chance of coming up heads and 50% chance of coming up tails. If we have a number of events or outcomes, and little information to based which one is more likely to occur, we can assume that they are equiprobable events or outcomes.
