Answer 2

Probability of getting {THT} is 0.125

Explanation:

Since 3 fair coins are tossed we can get the sample space for the experiment.

Sample space of the experiment = {HHH, HHT, HTT, HTH, TTH, THH, THT, TTT}

As per question ,

Getting Tail , Head, Tail is a success so all other events other than {THT} is a failure.

Therefore probability of getting {THT} =
`(1)/(8)` = 0.125
