You flip a nickel 100 times and record your results: 35 heads and 65 tails. From your experimental data, what is the probability of the nickel landing on tails? Round to the nearest whole percent.

You divide 100 by 65 and you get 2%

Out of 100 flips, the nickel landed on tails 65 times.

P(tails)=65/100 or 0.65 or 65%

Answer 65%
