If you flip a coin 3 times what is the probability of getting 1 heads?
Solution:
Given, a coin is tossed 3 times.
We have to find the probability of getting one head.
Probability = favourable outcomes/total number of outcomes.
The possible outcomes are
T H H
H T H
H H T
T T H
T H T
H T T
T T T
H H H
Total number of outcomes = 8
We observe that there is only one scenario in throwing all coins where there are no heads.
The number of cases in which we get exactly one head = 3
So, the probability to have one head = 3/8
= 0.375
Therefore, the probability of getting one head is 0.375
If you flip a coin 3 times what is the probability of getting 1 heads?
Summary:
If you flip a coin 3 times, the probability of getting 1 head is 0.375.
