What is Probability?
Who invented probability?
A Probability is expressed mathematically on a scale from zero to one therefore probability is often written as a fraction or a percentage. Best example: a die has six faces, numbered 1 through six. When the die is thrown, any of the six numbers can be shown. The chance of any particular number being face up is 1/6 - six things could happen therefore if we add up all the possibilities, we should get one. 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 1.
It's important to recognize us that we don't have to know which number will show up, the numbers are random, but even so, we know the chances of getting each number.
Mr. Games of chance were 1st investigated formally by Gerolamo Cardano. Mr. Games is an Italian lawyer who was also a wonderful mathematician. Mr. Games worked on the mathematics of gambling & probability in the 16th century.
