The correct option is C 0.5,1116
When a coin is flipped, we obtain either heads (H) or tails (T).
Total number of possible outcomes = 2
Total number of outcomes of getting tails = 1
Theoretical probability of getting tails=number of outcomes of getting tailstotal number number of possible outcomes=12=0.5
Given, when Charlie flipped the coin, heads was the outcome 25 times out of 80 times.
Number of times tails was the outcome when Charlie flipped a coin 80 times = 80 − 25 = 55
Let P(T) denote the experimental probability of obtaining tails when a coin is flipped.
P(T)=number of favourable outcomesnumber of total outcomes
P(T)=number of times tail obtainednumber of times the coins is flipped
P(T)=5580=11×516×5
P(T)=1116
The experimental probability of getting tails when Charlie flipped a coin 80 times is 1116.
