How To Use

  1. Enter the number of favourable outcomes and total outcomes.
  2. Optionally enter a second event for combined probability.
  3. Click Calculate to see probabilities as fractions, decimals and percentages.

Features

  • Single event probability
  • Combined AND / OR probabilities
  • Complement (NOT) probability

Frequently Asked Questions

How is probability calculated?
Probability = Number of Favourable Outcomes / Total Possible Outcomes, giving a value between 0 (impossible) and 1 (certain).
What is the probability of A AND B?
For independent events, P(A and B) = P(A) × P(B).
What is the probability of A OR B?
For mutually exclusive events, P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B). For non-exclusive events, P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B).
