... then all outcomes are equally likely. Nothing more, nothing less. You can always re-define the outcomes so that they are not all equally likely.
For example, on a single roll of a fair die, the numbers 1 to 6 are equally likely. But redefine the events so that
Event A = Prime number
Event B = composite number
Event C = neither prime nor composite number
then P(A) = 1/2, P(B) = 1/3 and P(C) = 1/6 : events with unequal likelihood.

Theoretical probability- what the probability "should be" if all outcomes are equally likely.

If the outcomes of the trials are equally likely, then (and only then) is it the number of favourable outcomes and the total number of trials.
Fair
"Equally likely"; nothing more, nothing less.

Theoretical probability
Theoretical probability- what the probability "should be" if all outcomes are equally likely.
Theoretical probability is the probability of an event when all outcomes are equally likely. With theoretical probability, you determine the probability by dividing the number of ways the event can occur by the total number of equally likely outcomes.
If you randomly pick a date in April how many equally likely outcomes are there?

They are two or more outcomes whose probabilities are the same.
If the cube is fair and balanced like Fox, then there are six equally likely outcomes,or so they would have you believe.
That's the 'probability' of a favorable outcome.but only if the outcomes are equally likely.
There are 210 = 1024 of them.
