Interpretation of the statement, “The weighted coin will land heads with probability 0.6.” | Limiting value of the ratio of heads to tails as the number of flips approaches infinity. | A rational agent (objective) or I (subjective) would bet 60 cents to a dollar on the coin landing heads. | Probability is an irreducible logical primitive, hence cannot be translated into other concepts. |
Main limitations | Every attempt to define probability includes notion of probability | Unclear why this should be a good meaning for the probability statement | Unsatisfying |
