Question

Suppose six coins are flipped. Then the probability of getting at least one tail is

• A. \((\frac{71}{72})\)
• B. \((\frac{53}{54})\)
• C. \((\frac{63}{44})\)
• D. \((\frac{1}{12})\)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The total number of possible outcomes when flipping six coins=\(2^6=64\)
Probability that no tail occurs=\(\frac{1}{64}\)
So, Probability of occurring at least one tail=\(1-\frac{1}{64}\)\(=\frac{63}{64}\)
The correct option is (C): \((\frac{63}{44})\)
