Equally Likely outcomesFor many experiements it is reasonable to assume that allpossible outcomes are Equally Likely . For example:IDraw a random sample of sizenfrom a assumption that the sample is drawn at randommeans that all samples of sizenhave an equal chanceof being chosen (much of statistical analysis dependson the assumption that samples are chosen randomly).IFlip a fair coinntimes and observe the sequence ofheads and tails that , die 1, die 2, die 3, .. , dien, and observethe ordered sequence of numbers on the Likely outcomesEqually Likely OutcomesFor any sample space withNequally Likely outcomes , weassign the probability1 Nto each : Flip a fair coin.
You can do a little research on the probabilities of all types of poker hands here Example(more respectable than lotteries & poker) A box ready for shipment contains 100 light bulbs, 10 of which are defective. The quality control test is to take a random sample of 5 light bulbs, without replacement, from the box.
