Solution

The correct option is B
1

A coin is tossed 100 times and consider the case when you only get tail 100 times and no head. So, in all the trials you will have a tail.

Probability of getting a tail = $\frac{Number of times tails appear}{Number of times a coin is tossed}$

Probability of getting a tail = $\frac{100}{100} = 1$
