The image above represents success and failure. To calculate success and failure, two essential parameters are needed and these parameters are x and N.
The formula for calculating success:
P(success) = x ⁄ N
Where;
x = Number of successes
N = Total Number of Trials or Items
Let’s solve an example;
Find the success when the x is 12 and N is 14.
This implies that;
x = Number of successes = 12
N = Total Number of Trials or Items = 14
P(success) = x ⁄ N
P(success) = 12 ⁄ 14
Dividing the numerator and denominator by 2
P(success) = 6 ⁄ 7
P(success) = 0.857
Therefore, the success is 0.857.

The formula for calculating failure:
P(failure) = (N – x) ⁄ N
Where;
x = Number of successes
N = Total Number of Trials or Items

Let’s solve an example;
Find the failure when the x is 12, and N is 14.
This implies that;
x = Number of successes = 12
N = Total Number of Trials or Items = 14
P(failure) = (N – x) ⁄ N
P(failure) = (14 – 12) ⁄ 14
So, P(failure) = 2 ⁄ 14
Dividing the numerator and denominator by 2
P(failure) = 1 ⁄ 7
P(failure) = 0.142
Therefore, the failure is 0.142.
