Can the experimental probability of an event be greater than 1? Justify your answer.

Answers (1)

Answer : No

We know that,

\text {Probability}=\frac{\text {No. of favourable outcomes}}{\text {Total number of outcomes}}

As we know the value of favourable outcomes can never be greater than the total outcomes.

So the probability can never be greater than 1. The probability of an event can be between only 0 and 1.

Hence, the experimental probability of an event can never be greater than 1
