Question

Two coins are tossed simultaneously. What is the probability of getting a head and a tail?

Answer 1

When 2 coins are tossed

Possible outcomes = HH, TH, HT, TT

Now, Outcomes with a head and a tail = HT, TH

Thus, P(getting with a head and a tail) = `"Number of outcomes with a head and a tail"/"Total number of outcomes"`

= `2/4`

= `1/2`
