• Theoretical Probability

The ratio of the number of times an event occurs to the number of times the experiment is done.

• Experimental Probability

If M and N are intersecting sets of outcomes in the sample space, the P(M or N) = P(M) + P(N) - P(M  $\cap$  N). If M and N are disjoint sets of outcomes in the sample space, then P(M or N) = P(M) + P(N)
