      You want to find odd against P
      number of ways an event will not occur: Number of Ways it can occur

      P(A) = 6/9

      If there are 6 ways it will not occur
      and 9 ways it can occur

      Than, there are 66 % that it can occur!
      P(A) = 6/9-6
      P (A) = 6/3
      P (A) =  2/1 Answer
