Answer 2

Given,

The team to bat first in a cricket match is decided by tossing a coin.

To Find,

The probability that the given team bats first.

Solution,

The probability indicates the possibility of occurring for an event.

The probability of an event can be found by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of outcomes in the event.

= $P(E) = \frac{n(F)}{n(T)}$

where $P(E)$ is the probability of an event,

           $n(F)$ is the number of outcomes that favor, and

           $n(T)$ is the total number of outcomes.

In this event, the favorable outcome is to bat, that is one outcome.

The total number of outcomes = 2 (either win the toss and bat or lose and bowl)

Thus on substitution,

Probability to bat = $\frac{1}{2}$

Henceforth, the probability that the given team bats first is $\frac{1}{2}$.
