I can show that the probabilities of all possible unique outcomes for a trial, sum to one.
Show transcript
Summing the probabilities of all possible unique outcomes for a trial gives 1
Summing the probabilities of non-unique events gives a value not equal to 1
Knowing that the probabilities of all possible unique outcomes sum to 1 can be used to find unknown probabilities.
Knowing that probabilities can sum to 1 can be used to find unknown probabilities (different denominators).
