It is not possible to have a probability greater than 1. All probabilities are between 0 and 1, inclusive.
yes
yes they can In terms of probability, one is taken to mean absolute certainty, something that must happen, equivalent to a 100% probability (100 out of 100 is equal to one). Hence, odds cannot be greater than one.
The probability density cannot be greater than 100% because nothing exists with a higher probability, except colloquially. We can say that we have a 110% certainty of something but that is only meant to express how certain we are. Because in reality nothing can be more than 100% in terms of probability density.
99/100 > 15/16
Probabilities are given a value between 0 (0% chance or will not happen) and 1 (100% chance or will happen). You cannot have a negative percent for something that will not happen or a percent greater than 100 for something that will happen.
Because probability is measured from zero to one, where zero means something cannot happen and one meaning it will definitely happen. This can also be looked at as there being a 0% chance or 100% chance of it happening. So obviously there can not be more of a chance than it definitely happening, so it cannot be more than one.
If zero is the number on one of the 9 sides, then the probability is 8/9 = 88.9% (rounded)If zero is not the number on any one of the 9 sides, then the probability is 100%.
The probability is 100% since a single die has numbers 1-6, all of which are greater than zero (assuming that the die is a fair standard die and the results of the roll may be analyzed regardless of where the die ended up).
No. Probability is defined as a number between 0 and 1 (100 percent). If you have four oil wells, each with a probability of hitting being 30%, then the probability of at least one hitting is 100% - (100% - 30%)4, or about 76%.
Assuming then that there are 100 numbers, 1-100, the probability of the number 23 being randomly picked out of 100 is: 1/100 or 0.01.
