Question

Devious villain Jardine has imprisoned you and asks you to play and win a game The game is : First Jardine will do a trail toss with a fair coin 10 times in these 10 times,8 of them were tails and two of them were heads and then he asks yo to choose head or tails and will do the same thing flip the coin 10 times and if the side you choose came up most of the time you win. Can we use basic probability to choose the right side and win more than 50% of the time?

Answer 1

Answer:

Tail

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no of outcomes= 10

No. of times tail turned upside= 8

P(getting tail)= 8/10

                     =4/5

similarly,

No. of times head turned upside= 2

P(getting head)= 2/10

                         =1/5

From this, you can understand that if you will choose tail; then you have 80% chance to win.
