Q: Explain the basic concept of probability according to the lecture.

A. A basic concept of probability is explained in this video. A “fair” coin means that it has an “equal chance” of landing on one side or another when you flip it; landing on either side is “equally likely” to occur. One side is called “heads” and another “tails.” The probability is obtained by dividing the number of possibilities that meet the conditions by the number of equally likely possibilities. If you run an experiment of this fundamentally random event of getting heads by flipping a coin many times, the result would eventually converge to 50%. If you roll a “fair” die, there are six equally likely possibilities and the probability of rolling one side is one out of six; while the probability of rolling one or three is one out of three; however, the probability of rolling two “and” three is zero because rolling two “and” rolling three are “mutually exclusive” events.
