1


1/4

Answer 1

Option 2 or B, 1/2

Explanation:

Technically, Coins only have two sides since they only have two sides we can put it in a form such as the following:

Coins have 2 sides: 50/50

Fractions have only 1 half: 1/2

Since there is only a 50/50 chance lets make it a percentage:

Percentage goes to 100%:

50%...

Since there is 50% chance to land on heads, now lets make it in fraction form:

1/2.

And there is your final answer:

1/2 or B
