This important characteristic of probability experiments is known as the Law of Large Numbers which states that as the number of repetitions of an experiment is increased, the relative frequency obtained in the experiment tends to become closer and closer to the theoretical probability.

It highlights the Law of Large Numbers, representing outcomes through unions, intersections, and complements, and discusses conditional probabilities and odds, particularly in gambling.
