Probability is the extent to which something is likely to happen or be the case[1]. Probability theory is used extensively in areas such as statistics, mathematics, science, philosophy to draw conclusions about the likelihood of potential events and the underlying mechanics of complex systems.

In mathematics, probabilities always lie between zero and one. An impossible event has a probability of 0, and a certain event has a probability of 1. (However, events of probability zero are not necessarily impossible, and those of probability one are not always certain[citation needed].)

There are other rules for quantifying uncertainty, such as the Dempster-Shafer theory and possibility theory, but those are essentially different and not compatible with the laws of probability as they are usually understood
The likelihood of the occurrence of an event. The probability of event A is written P(A). Probabilities are always numbers between 0 and 1, inclusive.

The four basic rules of probability:

1. For any event A, 0 ≤ P(A) ≤ 1.

2. P(impossible event) = 0.
Also written P(empty set) = 0 or P() = 0.

3. P(sure event) = 1.
Also written P(S) = 1, where S is the sample space.

4. P(not A) = 1 – P(A).
Also written P(complement of A) = 1 – P(A) or P(AC) = 1 – P(A) or .

If all outcomes of an experiment are equally likely

1 in 7.

Possible outcomes are:

Odd Even
6 0
5 1
4 2
3 3
2 4
1 5
0 6

7 possibilities, all equally likely, so the probability of 4 being odd and 2 being even is 1 in 7.
