The probability that an event will occur plus the probability that it will not occur equals 1.
If the event in question is A and the probability of A occurring is P(A), then the probability of A not occurring is P(A')=1-P(A).
If the probability of an event occurring is p, then 1-p represents the probability of the same event not occurring. The value of p must lie between 0 and 1.
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.

Odds.
The complement of an event occurring is that it does not occur.
p/(1-p) the relation between both outcomes.

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.
an impossible event has a probability of 0, it will never occur a certain event has a probability of 1, it will always occur

If the event is truly impossible, it has a zero probability of occurring. The definition of impossible is "not able to occur, exist, or be done," so that means there's no chance of it happening.
