Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
It is the set of all possible outcomes in an experiment.
A
Event
B
Sample space
C
Experiment
D
Sample point.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A set of all possible outcomes of an experiment is called a sample space. We shall denote the sample space by S. Hence, that the sample space is simply the set of all possible sample points of a given experiment.

Detailed explanation-2: -In particular, a random experiment is a process by which we observe something uncertain. After the experiment, the result of the random experiment is known. An outcome is a result of a random experiment. The set of all possible outcomes is called the sample space.

Detailed explanation-3: -The sample space of a random experiment is the collection of all possible outcomes. An event associated with a random experiment is a subset of the sample space. The probability of any outcome is a number between 0 and 1. The probabilities of all the outcomes add up to 1.

Detailed explanation-4: -The set of all possible outcomes of an experiment is called the sample space. Events are subsets of the sample space, and they are assigned a probability that is a number between zero and one, inclusive.

Detailed explanation-5: -A sample space is the set of all possible outcomes of a statistical experiment, and it is sometimes referred to as a probability space. And outcomes are observations of the experiment, and they are sometimes referred to as sample points. An event is a subset of a sample space as discussed by Shafer and Zhang.
