Answer:

Two definitions: Not secure, or likely to fall OR Something that is uncertain or dependent on chance.

Step-by-step explanation:

It depends on the context of the sentence, but the most common definition is something that is not secure or likely to fall.

Sentence example: The book was precariously placed on the shelf.

Although, precarious could also mean something that is uncertain or dependent on chance.

Sentence example: She made a precarious living at working McDonalds.

I hope this helps you! :)
