Question

A coin is tossed 40 times and head is obtained
14 times Find the probability of getting
a tail
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Coin tossed =40 times

showed tail =14 times

Probability (getting head) =  40-14/40

                                           =26/40

                                             =1.538461

Answer 2

Given,

The number of times the coin is tossed = 40

The number of times head is obtained = 14

To find,

The probability of getting a tail.

Solution,

The probability of getting a tail when a coin is flipped is 0.65.

We can simply solve the mathematical problem by the following procedure.

We know that;

Probability is the ratio of the favorable by the total outcome.

Thus,

It is given that;

The number of times the coin is tossed = 40

The number of times head is obtained = 14

Now,

The number of times tail is obtained = 40 - 14

                                                                = 26

Thus,

The probability of obtaining a tail when a coin is flipped will be the ratio of the number of times the tail is obtained when several numbers of times the coin is flipped and the total number of times the coin is flipped.

Consequently,

The probability of getting a tail = $\frac{26}{40}$

                                                      = $\frac{13}{20}$

                                                      = 0.65.

Thus, the probability of getting a tail when a coin is flipped is 0.65.
