p = 1
For example in popular language:
An event certain to occur is that the sun will rise each day. The probability of the sun rising is 100%.
But, as you are well aware, it's not the sun rising but the earth turning and it's only going to happen for another 10 billion years.

What is the likelihood a certain event will occur?
Its probability. The probability for a certainty is 1.
What is the number that describes the likelihood a certain event will occur?
The probability of that event.
What do you mean by probability?
Probability is a measure of the expectation that an event will occur or a statement is true. Probabilities are given a value between 0 (will not occur) and 1 (will occur).[1] The higher the probability of an event, the more certain we are that the event will occur.
An event that must occur has 1 for probability?
Yes. It is a certain event. If a coin is tossed, a 'head or tail would roll' is a certain event and has probability 1.
What is the probability of an event occurring to the probability that it will not occur?
The probability that an event will occur plus the probability that it will not occur equals 1.
Is the probability assigned to an event that is certain not to occur is 1.0?
No; if it is certain not to occur the probability is 0.
Probability of an impossible event is?
an impossible event has a probability of 0, it will never occur a certain event has a probability of 1, it will always occur
What is theoretical probability?
the probability a certain event will occur :-)
What is the likelihood a certain event will occur?
Its probability. The probability for a certainty is 1.
What is the number that describes the likelihood a certain event will occur?
The probability of that event.
If the probability that an event will occur is 1 then the event is certain to occur?
Yes, the probabilty scale is from one to zero so is the probability is 0 it will definitely not occur

What does 1 as an answer mean in probability?
It means that the event is certain to occur.
What term refers to the likelihood that a certain event will occur?
Probability
What number describes the likehood that certain event will occur?
Its probability.
What an event is certain to occur what us its probability?
Exactly 1.
