Determine whether the proposed solution to the following problem is correct. If it is incorrect, find the error and fix the solution.
Problem: You flip two coins and want to find the probability that both coins show heads.
Solution: There are three possible outcomes: 2 heads, 2 tails, or 1 head and 1 tail. Since a “success” is one of these three outcomes, p(both heads) = 1/3.
Solution
Not correct
flipping of two coins
Total out comes ={ H H, T T, H T, T H} =4
Let the event E= Both coins shows shows head
Favourable cases= {H H}=1
Probability = favourable cases/ total number of cases
= 1/4
favourable cases
