Question

Help please! :( I'm so lost.

The tree diagram below shows all of the possible outcomes for flipping three coins.
A tree diagram has outcomes (H, H, H), (H, H, T), (H, T, H), (H, T, T), (T, H, H), (T, H, T), (T, T, H), (T, T, T).
What is the probability that at least two of the coins will be tails?
1/8
3/8
1/2
3/4

Answer 1

The outcomes with at least two tails are (T, T, H), (T, H, T), (H, T, T), and (T, T, T), which have a total of 4 outcomes.

The probability of getting at least two tails is 4/8 = 1/2. Therefore, the answer is (c) 1/2.
