A favourable outcome is one in which the event that you are looking for happens.
The word favourable can have contrary connotations. If studying fatal lightning strikes, a "favourable" outcome is one in which someone dies from being struck by lightning. I don't know many people who would consider that "favourable"!

What in an event is the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the number of possible outcomes?
That's the 'probability' of a favorable outcome.but only if the outcomes are equally likely.
What is the probability of an event b that impossible?
The probability of an impossible event is 0.The probability of an impossible event is 0.The probability of an impossible event is 0.The probability of an impossible event is 0.
How do you find the probability of the complement of an event?
The probability of the complement of an event, i.e. of the event not happening, is 1 minus the probability of the event.
What does it mean to find the compliment of the probability of an event?
The complement (not compliment) of the probability of event A is 1 minus the probability of A: that is, it is the probability of A not happening or "not-A" happening.The complement (not compliment) of the probability of event A is 1 minus the probability of A: that is, it is the probability of A not happening or "not-A" happening.The complement (not compliment) of the probability of event A is 1 minus the probability of A: that is, it is the probability of A not happening or "not-A" happening.The complement (not compliment) of the probability of event A is 1 minus the probability of A: that is, it is the probability of A not happening or "not-A" happening.
What is the probability of getting a 2 on a six sided dice?
The probability of getting a 2 on a six sided die is 1/6. The probability of rolling a 5 is 1/6 The probability that any of the six numbers will come up is 1/6. Probability is found by "the number of ways of getting the favorable event/the total number of possibilities". Since there is only one number 2 on a a die, then there is only one way to get the favorable event. The total number of sides on a die is 6, so there are six different possibilities total that can come up. So, probability of rolling a 2 is 1/6.
