      4 Laplace’s Classical Definition: The Probability of an event A is defined a-priori without actual experimentation as provided all these outcomes are equally likely. Consider a box with n white and m red balls. In this case, there are two elementary outcomes: white ball or red ball.

      The geometric definition is an extension for events with uncountably many outcomes that are uniformly probable. The relative-frequency definition is more general than the other two defini-tions but is still limited. It is difficult to be applied to problems in which outcomes are not equally probable.

      The classical definition of probability If there are m outcomes in a sample space, and all are equally likely of being the result of an experimental measurement, then the probability of observing an event that contains s outcomes is given by e.g. Probability of drawing an ace from a deck of 52 cards. sample space consists of 52 outcomes.

      Note that the classical definition of probability does not apply in this case, because we can't break this experiment down into a set of equally likely outcomes. For instance, one outcome of the experiment is the situation where no bottles are toppled. Another outcome is the case where 1 bottle is topples, another is the case where 2 bottles

      The probability of an event A is the sum of the weights of all sample points in A. Therefore, 0 < P(A) < 1, P(0) = 0, and P(S) = 1 where 0 denotes the empty set and S the sample space. The theory of probability is based on the axiomatic definition of probability. The classical and relative frequency definitions of probability can be
