Question

What is the experamental probability that the coin lands on heads?

Answer 1

Answer:

The experamental probability that the coin lands on head is 50 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Experiment:

A coin is Toss

Let the Sample Space be 'S' that is total number of outcomes for a coin has been tossed = { Head, Tail }

∴ n ( S ) =  2

Let A be the event of getting a Head on tossing a coin i.e  { Head }

∴ n( A ) = 1

Now,

$\textrm{Probability} =\frac{\textrm{outcomes for the experiment}}{\textrm{total number of outcomes}}$

Substituting the values we get

$P(A) = \frac{n(A)}{n(S)} \\\\P(A) = \frac{1}{2} \\\\P(A) = 0.5\\\\P(A) = 50\%$

The experamental probability that the coin lands on head is 50 %
