Verified step by step guidance1
Step 1: Understand the concept of probability. Probability is a measure of the likelihood of an event occurring, expressed as a number between 0 and 1, where 0 means the event is impossible and 1 means the event is certain.
Step 2: Compare the given probabilities: 0, 0.25, 0.5, and 1. These values represent different levels of likelihood for an event occurring.
Step 3: Recognize that the lowest level of probability corresponds to the smallest numerical value. In this case, 0 represents the lowest probability, indicating that the event cannot occur.
Step 4: Confirm that the other values (0.25, 0.5, and 1) represent higher probabilities, with 1 being the highest, indicating certainty.
Step 5: Conclude that the correct answer is 0, as it represents the lowest level of probability for an event occurring.
