 In the \( E_i \) event space, an event happened \(k_i\) times then the frequency of that given event may be calculated with the following formula:  In the \( E_i \) event space, an event happened \(k_i\) times then the frequency of that given event may be calculated with the following formula: 
  
-$$ freq_i=\frac{k_i}{k} $$+$$ freq_i=\frac{k_i}{k} = \frac{\text{number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{number of all possible outcomes}}$$
  
-This means that we divide the number of all events by the number (frequency) of that given event. In case of a large number of experiments this number will show us the probability of that event.+This means that we divide the number of that //given event// by the number of all //experiments//.
