Answer:

The possible arrangement= 18 ways

Explanation:

Six identical coin are tossed.

Coin has only a tail and a head.

In how many possible ways can the arrangement be 3 head and 3 tail.

The possible arrangement= (3! * 3!)/2

The reason for dividing by two because coin has two face.

The possible arrangement= (3! * 3!)/2

The possible arrangement=( 6*6)/2

The possible arrangement= 36/2

The possible arrangement= 18 ways
