Detailed explanation-1: -A result of an experiment is called an outcome. The sample space of an experiment is the set of all possible outcomes. Three ways to represent a sample space are: to list the possible outcomes, to create a tree diagram, or to create a Venn diagram. The uppercase letter S is used to denote the sample space.
Detailed explanation-2: -Event or Outcome The results or outcomes or observations of an experiment are called events. They are generally represented by the capital letters of English Alphabets. Though we know the possible outcomes of a random experiment, we cannot predict which of these will occur/happen in a conduct of the experiment/trial.
Detailed explanation-3: -Outcome is a possible result of an experiment or trial.
