Question

In a probability experiment, Eric flipped a coin 45 times. The coin landed on heads 30 times. What is the ratio of heads to tails in this experiment?

Answer 1

Total coin flips: 45

Head: 30

 

First, we have to find out how many tails from the coin flip.  45 - 30 = 15

 

Head: 30 Tail: 15 --> 30:15 --> 2:1
