WHAT IS THE MEANING OF PROBABILITY PLEASE   GIVE ME THE DEFINITION ALSO HOW TO SOLVE QUESTION. PLEASE GIVE ME THE ANSWER IN FAST PLEASE.

Dear Student,
In simple terms, probability is the chance of a particular event occurring.
It is defined as the number of times that event can occur divided by the total number of possibilities(sample set).
i.e P(A)=n(A)n(S)
For example, what is the probability of an odd number occurring when you throw a fair unbiased dice?
Now, the sample set consists of all possible numbers from  1-6, i.e {1,2,3,4,5,6}. n(S)=6
Now, let A be the event that we get an odd number.
The set A will contain {1,3,5}. n(A)=3
Thus, P(A)=36=12
Therefore the probability of an odd number occurring when you throw a fair unbiased dice is 1/2.
Regards.
