Answer:

a) P(three tails) = \frac{1}{8}

b) P(two tails followed by one head) = \frac{1}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

coin is tossed three times so, outcome is

HHH, TTT, HTH, THH, HHT, THT, TTH, HTT.

Hence sample space will be

S = {HHH, TTT, HTH, THH, HHT, THT, TTH, HTT}

chance of getting three tails is '1' i.e. TTT

hence,

P(three tails) = \frac{1}{8}

two tails followed by one head is TTH

so, chance of getting that outcome is also '1'

hence,

P(two tails followed by one head) = \frac{1}{8}

What is 0.4 as a simplified fraction
mestny [16]

Answer: 2/5

Step-by-step explanation: Using the place value chart, we can see that the decimal 0.4 is four tenths, so we can write 0.4 as the fraction 4/10.

Notice however that 4/10 is not in lowest terms so we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 4 and 10 which is 2.

So if we divide the numerator and the denominator by 2, we get the equivalent fraction 2/5.

Therefore, 0.4 can be written as the fraction 2/5 which is in lowest terms.
