Question

If we toss a coin, then the probability of getting tails is_____.

  1. 1
  2. 1 half
  3. 1 fourth
  4. 1 third

hintHint:

Probability of an event = Number of favourable outcome / Total number of outcomes

The correct answer is: 1 half


    Here, we have to find the probability of getting tails when a coin is tossed.
    Possible outcomes are Head (H) and tail (T) i.e (H, T)
    Total number of outcomes = 2
    Number of favourable outcome = Number of tail = 1
    Therefore, P(getting tail) = 1/2
    Hence, the correct option is (b).

    Probability of a sure event is 1,for an impossible event it is 0 and for all other events its value lies between 0 and 1.
