Two events that have the same chance of happening. For example, if I flip a coin the event of obtaining a 'head' is equally as likely as the event of obtaining a 'tail'.

But equally likely does not mean 0.5 probability. It's possible that it's equally likely that someone in Ontario, Canada will die from being stung by a wasp as from being electrocuted in their kitchen at home. Neither event is very likely but the two events could be equally likely.
