Answer:

5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Find common denominators. Note that what you multiply to the denominator, you must multiply to the numerator as well. The common denominator is 12:

(2/3) * (4/4) = (8/12)

(1/4) * (3/3) = (3/12)

Subtract:

(8/12) - (3/12) = (8 - 3)/12 = 5/12

5/12 is your answer.

Therefore the experimental probability of the coin landing on tails can be calculated by the dividing the times it landed on tails by the total number of times it was tossed. Like so...

$\frac{33}{75}$ or 0.44
