Probability 2 Theory Probability theory is the branch of mathematics concerned with probability‚ the analysis of random phenomena. (Feller‚ 1966) One object of probability theory is random variables. An individual coin toss would be considered to be a random variable. I predict if the coin is tossed repeatedly many times the sequence of it landing on either heads or tails will be about even. Experiment The Experiment we conducted was for ten students to flip a coin one hundred times
