Question
If 'Head' appears consecutively in the first three
tosses of a fair/unbiased coin, what is the probability of 'Head' appearing in the fourth toss also?Solution
ATQ, 'Head' appears consecutively in the first three tosses of a fair/unbiased coin, Probability = number of favorable outcomes/total number of outcome As each time the coin is tossed is the independent event When a coin is tossed the possibility of getting is either head or tail Probability of getting 'Head' in the fourth toss = 1/2
