Work Step by Step
A probability experiment is an action, or trial, through which specific results (counts, measurements, or responses) are obtained. The result of a single trial in a probability experiment is an outcome. The set of all possible outcomes of a probability experiment is the sample space. An event is a subset of the sample space. It may consist of one or more outcomes.
