What does equally unlikely mean in probability?
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 two events can occur with the same probability is called?
Equally likely events.
What is the probability in a sample space of 98 equally likely events?
3/4
What are equally likely event?
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.
What is the difference between relative frequency approximation of probability and the classical approach to probability?
Relative frequency approximation is conducting experiments and counting the number of times the event occurs divided by the total number of events. The classical approach is determine the number of ways the event can occur divided by the total number of events.
