Answer:

Probability of tails = 0.51

Explanation:

Probability is the ratio of number of favorable outcome to the total number of outcomes.

Total number of outcomes = Total number of heads + Total number of tails

= 165 + 172 = 337

Number of favorable outcome = Total number of tails = 172


\texttt{Probability}=(172)/(337)=0.51
