Question

A coin is tossed 1000 times with the following frequencies:
Head: 445, Tail: 555
When a coin is tossed at random, what is the probability of getting it?
(i) A head?
(ii) A tail?

Answer 1

Given total number of times a coin is tossed = 1000
Number of times a head comes up = 445
Number of times a tail comes up = 555
(i) Probability of getting head = number of heads/total number of trails
= (445/1000)
= 0.445
(ii) Probability of getting tail = number of tail/total number of trails
= (555/1000)
= 0.555
