Definition of Probability.
What is probability is the measure of the likelihood that an event will occur.

What is 9/79,0.11,11% chance of pulling a yellow sheet. It is unlikely.
A jar contains 5 blue marbles, 5 pink marbles, 6 purple marbles. What is the theoretical probability of getting a pink marble.

The definition of a simple event.
A simple event is an event that consists of exactly one outcome.
