Question

8. Two fair (balanced) coins are tossed. What is the probability (in lowest fractional

terms) of two heads?
F. 0
G.1/4
H. ½
J. 2
K. 1

Answer 1

G.1/4

Explanation:

The probability of getting two heads when two fair coins are tossed is 1/4 or 0.25. This is because for each coin there are two possible outcomes, heads or tails, and the probability of getting heads is 1/2. Therefore, the probability of getting two heads when both coins are tossed is (1/2) * (1/2) = 1/4. So the correct answer is G. 1/4
