Question

Two fair coins are tossed simultaneously. Find the probability of getting 2 tails

Answer 1

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Total possible outcome of a toss = 2

(That is, either head or tail)

Find the probability of getting a tail in one toss:

P(getting a tail) = 1/2

Find the probability of getting 2 tails in 2 toss:

P(2 tails in 2 toss) = (1/2)(1/2) = 1/4

Answer: 1/4
