Question

Mason plays a game by flipping two fair coins. He wins the game if both coins land facing heads up. If Mason plays 200 times, how many times should he expect to win? Enter your answer in the box.

Answer 1

Total no.of possible outcomes = 200 × 4 = 800

No.of favourable outcomes = 200 × 1 = 200

P (E) = no.of favourable outcomes / total no.of possible outcomes

= 200/800

= 1/4
