Theoretical Probability: The number of ways that an event can occur, divided by the total number of outcomes in the sample space.
Example: Find the probability of flipping a heads on a coin.
Example: Find the probability of getting an even number when you roll a die.

If two or more events cannot occur at the same time they are termed mutually exclusive.
They have no common outcomes.
Overlapping events have at least one common outcome.
Mutually Exclusive vs. Overlapping

For mutually exclusive events, the probability that one or the other of several events will occur is found by summing the individual probabilities of the events:
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)
A Venn diagram is used to show mutually exclusive events.

The complement of an event is the set of outcomes in the same sample space that are NOT included in the outcomes of the event.
The complement is denoted with the word “not,” orwith the ' or symbol.
