Probability and Events Concepts

The video tutorial covers the concept of probability using tables, focusing on simple and compound events. It explains fair number cubes and their probabilities, and demonstrates how to use a table to find probabilities of compound events, such as rolling two number cubes. The tutorial also explores the probability of different sums and the likelihood of outcomes when flipping coins. The lesson concludes with a transition to the next topic, using a tree diagram to find probabilities.

What is a simple event?

• An event that cannot occur

• An event with multiple outcomes
