Exploring Basic Probability Concepts

This video tutorial covers basic probability concepts, including sample space, theoretical and experimental probability. It provides examples using coin flips, sock drawers, marbles, and cards to illustrate these concepts. The video explains how to calculate probabilities and complements, and discusses the differences between theoretical and experimental probability.
