In a single throw of a coin , What is the probability of getting tail

1.	In a single throw of a coin , What is the probability of getting tail ?
Answer» The probability of getting tail is 1/2 A coin has two sides a head(H) and a tail(T). ∴ All possible outcomes are H, T. Total number of outcomes = 2 Chances of getting a tail = 1 Probability (P) = \(\frac{Number\,of\,favorable\,outcomes}{Total\,number\,of\,outcomes}\) ∴ Probability of getting a tail P(T) \(\frac{Number\,of\,getting\,a\,tail}{Total\,number\,of\,outcomes}\) = \(\frac{1}{2}\)

In a single throw of a coin , What is the probability of getting tail ?

Answer» The probability of getting tail is 1/2

A coin has two sides a head(H) and a tail(T).

∴ All possible outcomes are H, T.

Total number of outcomes = 2

Chances of getting a tail = 1

Probability (P) = \(\frac{Number\,of\,favorable\,outcomes}{Total\,number\,of\,outcomes}\)

∴ Probability of getting a tail P(T) \(\frac{Number\,of\,getting\,a\,tail}{Total\,number\,of\,outcomes}\) = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
