When a coin is tossed, we have possibilities of a head, a tail, a head-head, a tail-tail, a head-tail, a tail-head. Similarly, question ratio can be in 1/4, 1/2, 1

Explanation:

Ratio of obtaining a head is 0.5 ≡ 50%

Ratio of obtaining a tail is 0.5 ≡ 50%

Ratio of obtaining a head or tail is 0.25 ≡ 25%

Ratio of obtaining a tail or head is 0.25 ≡ 25%

Ratio of obtaining a head is 0.5 ≡ 50%

Ratio of obtaining a tail is 0.5 ≡ 50%

Ratio of obtaining a head or tail is 0.25 ≡ 25%

Ratio of obtaining a tail and head is 0.0625=6.25%

Ratio of obtaining a head and tail is 0.0625=6.25%

Similarly, question ratio can be in 1/4, 1/2, 1
