Detailed explanation-1: -Theoretical probability describes how likely an event is to occur. We know that a coin is equally likely to land heads or tails, so the theoretical probability of getting heads is 1/2. Experimental probability describes how frequently an event actually occurred in an experiment.

Detailed explanation-2: -For theoretical probability, it doesn’t require you to actually do the experiment and then look at the results. Instead, the theoretical probability is what you expect to happen in an experiment (the expected probability). This is the theoretical probability definition.

Detailed explanation-3: -This formula is expressed as follows: Theoretical Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Number of possible outcomes.

Detailed explanation-4: -The formula for finding the theoretical probability of an event is. Number of favorable outcomes. P(E) = Total number of possible outcome. Theoretical probability is also known as Classical or A Priori probability.
