What is the probability of expecting a tails compared to a head on a coin?

?

Umm… so since you have two different options with a coin, what is the "expected" probability of getting a head?

anonymous · Answer

50%

anonymous · Answer

Exactly! Or 1/2. So that means if you flipped the coin 60 times, you would expect to receive 30 heads---> 30/60 since it is a probability of 50%
