Expert Solution
Step 1: Define the probability:-

Probability is a way to occur how likely something is to happen. Many things are difficult to forecast with absolute confidence. Using it, we can only make predictions about the likelihood of an event happening, or how likely it is. Probability can range from 0 to 1, with 0 denoting an impossibility and 1 denoting a certainty.
