A coin is thrown and it lands on a chess board. Find the probability of it landing on a white square if it falls exactly inside a square.

The correct option is C: $\frac{1}{2}$

In a Chess Board, there are $32$ white and $32$ black squares.

$\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Number of favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total Number of outcomes}}$

Number of white squares (favorable outcomes) $=32$

Total number of squares or outcomes $=64$

So probability of coin falling in a white square

$=\frac{\text{Number of white squares}}{\text{Total number of squares}}$

$=\frac{32}{64}$

$=\frac{1}{2}$
