In European roulette, all 37 numbers have equal chances of coming up. The second number or 37 in our example, represents the overall number of possible outcomes. When the probability is expressed as a fraction, the first number stands for the expected frequency of a given event occurring.
When the concept of probability is applied to roulette, it is expressed as “1 out of 37”, for example, or is written down as 1/37, which is the same thing. In casino games like roulette, however, the term denotes the likelihood that a given number will come up.
Generally speaking, the term “probability” can be defined as the likelihood that a specific event or outcome will occur.
