Probability: fair coin tossed three times..

Regardless of the reason, there is a mathematical rule governing coin flipping - it says that when you flip a coin the outcomes are about even between heads and tails. P(H) = 1/2 , P(T) = 1/2 . Remember, the probabilities refer to what happens if you flip the coin many times. Problem: A fair coin is tossed three times. What is the probability of obtaining one Head and two Tails? (A fair coin is one that is not loaded, so there is an equal chance of it landing Heads up or Tails up.) A) 1/4 B) 1/3 C) 3/8 D) 5/8 #simpleProbability #math #Statistics #chances #coinToss #probabilityLine #likelyEvent #unlikelyEvent #NikolaysGeneticsLessons #geetics #pedigree #genotype #phenotype #Probability #multiplicationRule #additionRule #mutuallyExclusive #independentEvents #crashCourse #crashcourse #stats #apStats #apStatistics #Conditional #theoretical #empirical #independent #Education #introduction #sampleSpace #treeDiagrams #chance #lesson #maths #data #probabilityFormula #basicProbability #biology
