What is probability?

Asked by flutherother (34538points) June 10th, 2013

What does it mean to say one event is more likely than another? Looking back in time everything that has happened seems fixed, looking forward anything is possible. If you throw a dice you don’t know which number will be uppermost, you throw the dice and get a six. What happens to the other five possibilities? At what instant does the possibility become a certainty? What changes?
