Lara tossed a fair coin 3 times. What is the probability of getting heads in the first two trials?

2 answers:

7 0

I believe that it would be 4 over 8, if you consider the fact that it asks about the first two times (not all 3) meaning that there would be a 50% chance of flipping either a heads or tails.

I hope this helps you.

If a fair coin is tossed three times, find the probability of getting heads on the first toss and tails on the second and third

poizon [28]

Answer:

The answer is: $\frac{1}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample space when tossing a coin three times is [HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT] and the total number of occurrence is 8.

Getting Head on first toss, tail on second and third is: HTT and it occurs just once in our sample space.

Therefore, the probability of getting Head on first toss, tails on second and third tosses is: $\frac{1}{8}$

Note probability = $\frac{number of possible occurrence}{number of total occurrence}$
