Let be an event in a sample space . The probability of event , or the complement of in is the sum of the probabilities of the outcomes not in $E$: $$ \boxed{ p(\bar E) = 1 - p(E) } $$
title: Example
We flip a fair coin $10$ times, what is the probability that heads comes up at least once?
Let $E$ be the event that heads comes up at least once of the $10$ flips.
Let $\bar E$ be the event that each of the $10$ times, tails comes up.
$$
\begin{aligned}
p(E) &= 1 - p(\bar E) \\
&= 1 - \frac{1}{2^{10}} \\
&= 1 - \frac{1}{1024} \\
&= \frac{1023}{1024}
\end{aligned}
