Determine whether the number could be the probability of an event. Explain your reasoning.

-

0

.

25

-O. 25 is not the probability of an event because it does not lie between the value of 0 and 1.

Explanation:

The probability of an event is the measure of the chance that the event will occur as a result of an experiment. The probability of an event A is the number of ways event A can occur divided by the total number of possible outcomes. If P (A) > P (B) then event A is more likely to occur than event B.

The probability of an event must be a number between '0' and '1' (inclusive). In words: The probability of an impossible event is '0'. In words: The probability of an absolutely certain event is '1'
