Front

Define theoretical probability.

Back

Theoretical probability is the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes.

Front

Define experimental probability.

Back

Experimental probability is the ratio of the number of times an event occurs to the total number of trials conducted.

Front

What is the formula for calculating expected outcomes in probability?

Back

Expected outcomes = P(event) * number of trials.
