If there are two possible outcomes, the probability would be 50% or 1/2 (AN EVEN CHANCE). "Equally likely events" refers to the chances of each possible outcome among many being equal. For example, using a six-sided die in a dice game yields a 1/6 chance for any one of the numbers to appear on top of the cube. Assuming that the die is not loaded, all six numbers are presumed to have an equal likelihood to end up on top in a given throw.
Equally likely events.
Two events are equally unlikely if the probability that they do not happen is the same for each event. And, since the probability of an event happening and not happening must add to 1, equally unlikely events are also equally likely,

When the n events of a given aleatory experiment are equally likely, the theoreticalprobability of any one of the n events is: P(E) = 1/n
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.

Nothing more significant than equally likely events.

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.
Without more information all you can say is that they it is some non-negative number less than or equal to 0.5.
Theoretical probability
Theoretical probability- what the probability "should be" if all outcomes are equally likely.
If you can enumerate the outcome space into equally likely events, then it is the number of outcomes that are favourable (in which the event occurs) divided by the total number of outcomes.
