Answer:

Please check explanations for answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need all the probability in the same decimal form

P(A) = 0.66

P(B) = 0.067

P(C) = 2/3 = 0.67

P(D) = 60/100 = 0.6

a) The least likely is the smallest value of decimal

This is 0.067 which is for coin B

most likely is the highest probability; this is C which is 2/3

b. Probability that D will land on tail is 1 - probability that it lands on head

= 1 - 0.6 = 0.4

c. Mathematically that is the product of the probability and the number of times it was thrown

That will be;

0.066 * 4000

= 264 times
