Understanding the calculation
For equally likely outcomes, probability is the fraction of outcomes that satisfy the event. The complement is 1โP.
P(event) = favorable outcomes รท total outcomesThe result panel substitutes your numbers into this relationship and shows the important intermediate values.

Helpful answers
Probability Calculator FAQs
Important details about formulas, inputs, limitations, and result interpretation.
What is a complement probability?
It is the probability that the event does not occur: 1โP(event).
What are odds in favour?
They compare favorable outcomes with unfavorable outcomes.
Can favorable outcomes equal zero?
Yes. That represents an impossible event in the defined sample space.
Does this handle dependent events?
No. This tool handles a single equally likely outcome model.
