Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

A coin has two sides, so there are two outcomes.

The outcomes are of course, heads and tails.

The chance of landing on heads is 1/2. The chance of landing on tails is also 1/2.

Answer: Theoretically, 50 percent. But technically, if you flipped it a extremely large amount of times, the extremely slight weight difference would show.

Step-by-step explanation: 1/2 = two sides of the coins, only one can be landed on per flip, and assuming equal chances.

Answer:  0.88

Step-by-step explanation:  

Let C is the event of drinking coffee, T is the event of drinking tea and M is the event of drinking milk.

Thus, when we make the Venn diagram of the given situation according to the given information,

Total number of people = 50

Number of people who like coffee, tea and milk = 19

Number of people who like coffee, tea but not milk = 16

Number of people who like coffee, milk but not tea = 2

Number of people who like tea, milk but not coffee = 5

Thus, the number of people who like tea only = Total people - (people who like coffee, tea but not milk + people who like coffee, tea and milk + the one who only like tea and milk but not coffee)

= 50 - ( 16 + 19 + 5) = 50 - 46 = 4

Thus, Total number of the person who like milk = 16 + 19 + 5 + 4 = 44

⇒ Probability that this person likes tea = \frac{\text{ Total person who like to drink milk}}{\text{ Total number of people}} = \frac{44}{50} = 0.88

puteri [66]
The fraction 5/10 is the same as 50/100 because they are equivalent. It will take 10 group of 10 to get to the denominator 100, so it will take 10 groups of 5 in the numerator to make it equal.

The answer is 50/100.
