A coin is tossed 500 times with the following frequencies;
head =255
tail = 245
compute the probability of each event ????

Dear Student,

Please find below the solution to the asked query:

Given : A coin is tossed 500 times with the following frequencies ; Head = 255   and Tail = 245
So,

n ( S  ) = 500

We know probability P ( E )  =   Total number of desired events n ( E )Total number of events n ( S )

1 ) The probability of getting a head  = 255500 = 51100                              ( Ans )

2 ) The probability of getting a tail  = 245500 = 49100                              ( Ans )

Hope this information will clear your doubts about Probability  .

Head = 255/500 = 51/100
Tail = 245/500 = 49/100
  • -1
probability of getting a head = 255/500= 0.51
probability of getting a tail   = 245/500 = 0.49
