Answer: Question 1 - 1/2
Question 2 - 1/4
Explanation:
Hello! The answer to the first question is 1/2 because the quarter can have either two possible outcomes. The quarter could land on heads or tails, and the chance of landing on heads is 1/2 and the chance of landing on tails is 1/2.
For the second question, the answer is 1/4 because the probability of a nickel landing on heads is 1/2 and the probability of a penny landing on heads is also 1/2. To find the probability of both landing on heads. You have to multiply both probabilities together. 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4, which is your answer for the second question.
Hope this helps!
