Question

Murray has tossed a coin 120 times. The coin landed on heads 54 times. What is the experimental probability that the coin will land on heads on the next toss?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Experimental probability = number of favorable outcomes/number of total outcomes

From the information given,

number of favorable outcomes = 54

number of total outcomes = 120

The experimental probability that the coin will land on heads on the next toss = 54/120

Dividing the numerator and denominator by 6,

The experimental probability that the coin will land on heads on the next toss = 9/20
