What is probability?

Probability means possibility. It deals with the occurrence of a random event. The value of probability can only be from 0 to 1.

Its basic meaning is something is likely to happen. It is the ratio of the favorable event to the total number of events.

No of action films = 3

No of comedy films=3

The probability that you select a comedy to watch second given that you randomly selected a comedy to watch first is found as;

[tex]\rm P = \frac{C_3'}{C_6'} \times \frac{C_2'}{C_5'} \\\\\ P=\frac{3}{6} \times \frac{2}{5} \\\\ P=\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Hence, the  probability that you select a comedy to watch second given that you randomly selected a comedy to watch first will be,[tex]\rm \frac{1}{5}[/tex].
