      Question

      A coin is tossed four times one by one. What is the

      probability of getting a tail for the first time, head for the second time and again head for the third time, and a tail for the fourth time?
      A 1/16 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 3/16 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 1/8 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 1/4 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Number of times the coin is tossed = 4
      Probability of getting a tail for the first time = 1/2
      Probability of getting a head for the second time = 1/2
      Probability of getting a head for the third time = 1/2
      Probability of getting a tail the fourth time = 1/2
      => Required probability = (1/2) (1/2) (1/2) (1/2) = 1/16
