Question:
You flip a fair coin. What is P(tails)?
If necessary, round your answer to 2 decimal places.
Answer:
P(tail) = 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
A fair die
Required
P(Tails)
A fair die has 2 sides, the head and the tail; each of the sides have equal probability.
The number of head in a die is 1 and the number of a tail in a die is 2.
Let P(tail) represent the probability of obtaining a tail.
P(tail) is calculated by number of tail divided by number of sides of a die.
Hence, P(tail) = ½
P(tail) = 0.50
