anonymous · Answer

Rena what is the probability of the coin landing on heads?

anonymous · Answer

I cant help if you dont answer

anonymous · Answer

$$P(heads)=\frac{1}{2}$$$$P(even)=\frac{3}{6}$$$$P(evenheads)=P(even) \times P(heads)$$$$P(evenheads)=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{4}$$ or 25%

He asked what the probability was, not how to find the probability. I answered the question that was asked.
