A quarter, a nickel,and a penny are flipped. Find the probability of each of the following:-
a)The penny and nickel shows head
b)All these coins land the same way
The probability of an event is the measure of the chance that the event will occur as a result of an experiment. The probability of an event A is the number of ways event A can occur divided by the total number of possible outcomes. a.) since each coin has 50% chance to have heads (1/2) x (1/2) = 1/4 probability The penny and nickel shows head
b.) All these coins land the same way (1/2) x (1/2) x (1/2) = 1/8
