Solution

The probability expressed as a percentage of a particular occurrence can never be less than 0 and greater than 100.

Explanation:

For any event, the theoretical probability satisfies: \[0 \leq P(E) \leq 1\] 

Multiplying by 100 gives the percentage range: \[0% \leq P(E) \times 100% \leq 100%\]

Therefore, probability as a percentage can never be less than 0 and never greater than 100.
