Question

A fair coin is flipped 10 times and the results are observed. The coin lands heads-side up 4 times.

Answer 1

Answer:

The experimental probability of the coin landing tails-side up is 60%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of it landing heads up is 4/10. You can use 4/10 to find how many times it landed on tails.

10/10 - 4/10= 6/10 now convert 6/10 into a percentage, 60/100=60%

Answer 2

Answer:  0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : the total number of times a fair coin flipped = 10

The total number faces on a fair coin (Tail/head)=2

Since, the number of times coin lands heads-side up=4

Then , the number of times coin lands on tails = 10-4=6

Now, the experimental probability of the coin landing tails-side up will be :-

$\text{P(Tail)}=\dfrac{\text{Number of times coin lands on tails}}{\text{Total number of times coin flipped}}\\\\=\dfrac{6}{10}=0.6$

Hence, the experimental probability of the coin landing tails-side up = 0.6
