Solution:
When 2 coins are tossed, the possible outcomes are HH. HT, TH, TT.
Number of possible outcomes = 4
(i)Let E be an event of getting 2 tails.
Favourable outcomes = TT
Number of favourable outcomes = 1
P(E) = 1/4
Probability of getting 2 tails is 1/4 .
(ii)Let E be an event of getting one tail.
Favourable outcomes = TH, HT
Number of favourable outcomes = 2
P(E) = 2/4 = 1/2
Probability of getting one tail is 1/2 .
