Question

Which of the following has equally likely outcomes?

• A. Tossing a coin
• B. Tossing two coins simultaneously
• C. Rolling two dice
• D. All of the above

Hint:

Equally likely outcomes are events where each individual outcome has the same probability of occurring. For example, tossing a fair coin or rolling a fair die.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Understand equally likely outcomes
Equally likely outcomes refer to situations where each possible outcome has the same probability of occurring. 
Step 2: Analyze each option 
Option (1): Tossing a coin has two equally likely outcomes: heads and tails.
Option (2): Tossing two coins simultaneously has four equally likely outcomes: (HH, HT, TH, TT).
Option (3): Rolling two dice also has 36 equally likely outcomes, as each die has 6 faces, giving 6 × 6 = 36 possibilities.
Step 3: Conclusion 
All of the options represent situations with equally likely outcomes. Hence, the correct option is \( (4) \).
