What to Focus On

  • A random experiment has known possible results but uncertain exact result.
  • The result of a random experiment is called an outcome.
  • Tossing a coin, throwing a die, and drawing cards are random experiments.
  • Sample space is the set of all possible outcomes.
  • Sample space is denoted by S or Ω.
  • Each element of sample space is a sample point.
  • Favourable outcomes satisfy a given condition.
  • An event is a set of favourable outcomes.
  • An event is a subset of the sample space.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
