The answer is B.

If a coin is flipped 14 times and lands on heads 10 times the fraction would equal to 10/14.

10/14 simplifies to 5/7.

Answer:


(B) (5)/(7)

Explanation:

If the coin is flipped 14 times

The Total Number of Trial in the Experiment =14

It comes up heads 10 times

This Means: Number of Successful Outcome of HEADS =10

In an experimental probability,

Experimental probability of the coin’s coming up heads

=Number of Successful Outcome of HEADS/Total Number of Trials in the Experiment

=
(10)/(14)=(5)/(7)
