In a cricket match, a batsman hits a boundary 6 times out of 30 balls he plays.
(i) he hits boundary
(ii) he does not hit a boundary.

Remember the empirical or experimental or observed frequency approach to probability.
If n be the total number of trials of an experiment and A is an event associated to it such that A happens in m-trials. Then the empirical probability of happening of event A is denoted by and is given by
 
(i) Let A be the event of hitting boundary.
The number of times A happens is 6.
Therefore, we have
(ii) Let B be the event of does not hitting boundary.
The number of times B happens is .
Therefore, we have
