Measuring Probability
Experiment: Roll a die which has six sides with each side showing one number from 1 to 6 and with each side showing a different number.Event:If we define an event as the number 5 showing, what is the probability of this event happening ?
Step-1: Find the Total number of possible outcome of the experiment
we may get either the number 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or number 6 on rolling the die. Therefore total number of possible outcomes are 6.
Step-2: Find the number of ways the event could occur
On rolling the die the number 5 will occur in only one way
Step-3: Substitute the values in the formula
P( Number 5 showing ) = 1/6 P( Number 5 showing ) = 0.17
P(Event) = Number of ways the event could occur
Total number of outcomes
If we roll the die once 1) what is the probability of 5 showing ? or 2) what is the chance that the number 5 will be shown ? or 3) How much percentage of an experiment will result in number 5 ?
Interpretation: Since the probability calculated now is 0.17 , theoretically we can say that , 17% of the times, the result of an experiment (of Rolling a die ) will be number 5 and the balance 83% of the times the experiment will result in other numbers.
If we roll the die once 1) what is the probability of 5 showing ? or 2) what is the chance that the number 5 will be shown ? or 3) How much percentage of an experiment will result in number 5 ?

Complement of an Event
Experiment: Roll a die which has six sides with each side showing one number from 1 to 6 and with each side showing a different number.
Event:1. what is the probability of showing numbers greater than 3 ?2. what is the probability of showing numbers less than 5 ?3. What is the probability of number showing more than 3 and less than 6 ?
Event-1. probability of showing numbers greater than 3
Complement of this event is = probability of not showing numbers greater than 3
P(Number showing >3 ) = 3/6 = 0.5P(Not showing number>3) = 1-0.5
=0.5
Event-2. probability of showing numbers less than 3
Complement of this event is = probability of not showing numbers less than 3
P(Number showing <3 ) = 2/6 = 0.33P(Not showing number<3) = 1-0.33
= 0.67
The probability for the opposite of an event E is called Complement of that event . Complement is denoted as E’.

B)}P(neither A nor B ) =1- { P(A) + P(B) – P(A and B)}
Questions: Neither A Nor B

Independent & Conditional EventsIndependent Event
• Example:• The probability of a person
buying a MBA Scanner is not affected by sex.
• Hence the event ‘Buying a MBA Scanner’ is not affected by the other event ‘ male/female buyer’
• Hence the event ‘Buying a MBA Scanner’ is independent of the event ‘ buyer being male / female’
Conditional Event
• Example:• The probability of a person
buying a MBA Scanner is affected by the specialisation.
• Hence the event ‘Buying a MBA Scanner’ is affected by the other event ‘marketing /Finance branch of the buyer’
• Hence the event ‘Buying a MBA Scanner’ dependents on the event ‘marketing /Finance branch of the buyer’
The probability of an event occurring will be get affected by other events or extra information.
The probability of an event occurring will not be get affected by other events.

Conditional Probability
• In a game suppose your opponent has thrown a dice and you have not seen the result . Throwing 6 is the winning criteria .
We define :Event A: Throw is a number 61. P(Throw is a number 6)= 1/6 = 16%2. Opponent has 16% chance to winNow the opponent says he had thrown an even
number. Hence we define :
Event B: Throw is an even number 3. Possible outcomes are 2,4,64. 6 is one among the outcomes – Event A5. The conditional probability of throwing 6 the
event-A after we know that the throw is even is = 1/3 = 33%
6. Now Opponent has 33% chance to win
The probability that the event ‘A’ occurs when we know that ‘B’ has occurred is conditional probability

Conditional Events
• If we have two events A & B the probability P (A|B) is the Conditional probability of A given B.• That is the probability that the event
A occurs when we know that B has occurred. • |- this vertical line means “given”• The event on the right of the vertical line is the additional
information.

Multiplication Rule• Independent EventsP(A and B) = P(A) * P(B)
• Conditional Events P(A and B) = P(A|B)* P(B)

Calculating Independent & Conditional Probabilities
• Independent Probability• If two events A & B are
independent then the probability that they both occur is:
• Conditional Probability• If two events are dependent
P (A|B) = P( A and B ) / P ( B )P (A|B) = P( A B ) / P ( B )
P(A and B)= P(A)* P(B)
P(A, B and C )= P(A)* P(B) * P(C) P(A and B)= P(A)* P(A|B)
