Probability is a branch of math that deals with uncertainty. It is the likliness of an occurance. Probability is used for many things like gambiling and meterology.
-Probability can be shown in terms of percentages.
-Probability runs between the number 1 and 0. It it usually represented as a fraction and reduced.
-You can determine the probability either empirically or theoretically. In math we mostly use empirical beacause they are based on exact observations.
-An experiment can be done to determine your own statistics to find the probability of something.
