Question

In tossing three coins, the number of possible outcomes is:

• A. 3
• B. 4
• C. 8
• D. 6

Hint:

The number of outcomes for independent events is the product of the number of outcomes for each event.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

In tossing three coins, each coin has two possible outcomes (heads or tails). Thus, the number of possible outcomes is: \[ 2 \times 2 \times 2 = 8. \] Thus, the correct answer is \( \boxed{8} \).
