ABSTRACT
The study of probability includes many applications, such as games of chance, occupancy and order problems, and sampling procedures. In some of such applications, we deal with finite sample spaces in which all sample points are equally likely to occur. Theorem 1.3 shows that, in such cases, the probability of an event A is evaluated simply by dividing the number of points of A by the total number of sample points. Therefore, some probability problems can be solved simply by counting the total number of sample points and the number of ways that an event can occur.
