Probabilities are given a value between 0 (0% chance or will not happen) and 1 (100% chance or will happen). You cannot have a negative percent for something that will not happen or a percent greater than 100 for something that will happen.

What are Synonyms of probability from likely to least likely?
certainty (no doubt), probability or likelihood (greater than 50% chance), possibility (greater than 0% but less than 50% chance)
How would you find the probablility of a number less than three or a number greater than five on a spinner that is numbered from one to eight?
There are 2 numbers less than 3, so the probability in this case is 2 in 8, or 1 in 4. There are 3 numbers greater than 5, so the probability in this case is 3 in 8. There are 5 numbers less than 3 or greater than 5, so the probability in this case is 5 in 8.
What is the probability of getting less than 2 on the first die and greater than 4 on the second die?
It is 1/18.
What is an event with a probability greater then 0 but less than half?
There are many such events. The probability of throwing a 1 or 2 on one roll of a die, for example.
What is the probability of the mean being greater than 78?
A very high probability if your numbers are greater than 78.
Cant the probability of an outcome be greater than 1?
no
What is the probability of rolling a number less than 3 and greater than 4 with one roll of a number cube?
The probability is zero. No number can be less than 3 and greater than 4.
Can a probability be more than 1 or less than 0?
No. A probability of 1 means something will definitely happen. There cannot be a greater certainty than that, so probability cannot be greater than 1. 0 means there is no chance of something happening. You cannot have less than no chance of something happening. So a probability cannot be less than 0.

When probability is less then 0 what happen?
Probability can not be less than 0 or greater than 1. A probability of 0 means there is no possibility whatsoever of an event occurring. A probability of 1 means that the event is guaranteed to occur no matter what.
Can a joint probability have a value greater than 1?
A joint probability can have a value greater than one. It can only have a value larger than 1 over a region that measures less than 1.
What is croc in math?
probably that less than greater than stuff, still cant figure out which one is less than and which one is greater than.
Can a probability be greater than 1?
A probability can never be greater than 1.

Why can't the probability be greater then one?
A probability of 1 means something will definitely happen. There cannot be a greater certainty than that, so probability cannot be greater than 1.

There are many such events. The probability of throwing a 1 or 2 on one roll of a die, for example.
