Theoretical probability- what the probability "should be" if all outcomes are equally likely.
Each outcome has a probability of 0.05
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.
No, it is not.
Discrete probability. It helps if the all the outcomes in the sample space are equally probable but that is not a necessity.
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.

Theoretical probability- what the probability "should be" if all outcomes are equally likely.
"Equally likely"; nothing more, nothing less.
That's the 'probability' of a favorable outcome.but only if the outcomes are equally likely.
Each outcome has a probability of 0.05
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.
The probability of an event is the ratio of the number of equally likely oucomes of a trial which are favourable to that event, and the total number of outcomes.
a 12-sided die is rolled. The set of equally likely outcomes is (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12). What is the probability of rolling an 8
No, it is not.
Discrete probability. It helps if the all the outcomes in the sample space are equally probable but that is not a necessity.
A set of outcomes are said to be equally like if the probability for the occurrence of any of the is the same as that for any other. The phase, "at random" is used to indicate that the probability for each individual outcome is the same.
