Probability of occurrence of an event -

Let S be the sample space then the probability of occurrence of an event E is denoted by P(E) and it is defined as 

P\left ( E \right )=\frac{n\left ( E \right )}{n\left ( S \right )}

P\left ( E \right )\leq 1

P(E)=\lim_{n\rightarrow\infty}\left(\frac{r}{n} \right )

 

 

- wherein

Where n repeated experiment and E occurs r times.

 

 \frac{5C_{1} \times 3C_{2}}{8C_{3}}=\frac{15}{56}
