Question

A coin is tossed once with head as the outcome. On the second toss, what is the probability of getting the tail?

• A. 1
• B.
• C. 0
• D.

Answer 1

The correct option is B

The second toss is an independent event. It has no relation with the first toss. So, the probability of getting a tail will be same as that when the coin was tossed for the first time.

i.e., P(tail) = $\frac{1}{2}$
