1 thought on “Write all possible outcomes, when: i) a coin is tossed once. ii) a coin is tossed two times or two coins are tossed together once.”

1. Step-by-step explanation:

   Given :–

   i)a coin is tossed once.

   ii) a coin is tossed two times or two coins are tossed together once.

   iii) a coin is tossed three times.

   To find :–

   Write all possible outcomes

   Solution:–

   We know that

   If “n” coins are tossed once then the total number of possible outcomes are 2^n

   I) If a coin tossed once then the total possible outcomes are 2^1 = 2 .

   They are:

   Head (H)

   Tail (T)

   ii) a coin tossed two times or two coins are tossed together once then the total possible outcomes are 2^2 =4.

   They are:

   Head and Head (HH)

   Head and Tail (HT)

   Tail and Head (TH)

   Tail and Tail ( TT)

   iii)a coin is tossed three times. then the total possible outcomes are 2^3 = 8.

   They are :

   Head , Head , Head (HHH)

   Head, Head , Tail (HHT)

   Head ,Tail , Tail (HTT)

   Head, Tail , Head (HTH)

   Tail , Head , Head ( THH)

   Tail , Tail , Head ( TTH)

   Tail, Head , Tail ( THT)

   Tail , Tail , Tail (TTT)

   Used formula:–

   If “n” coins are tossed once then the total number of possible outcomes are 2^n
