three coins are tossed simultaneously what is the probability of getting two heads

The probability of getting two heads when three coins are tossed simultaneously

Answer:
When three coins are tossed simultaneously, there are a total of 8 possible outcomes: HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, THT, TTH, TTT (where H represents heads and T represents tails).

Out of these 8 outcomes, the number of outcomes where two heads appear is 3 (HHT, HTH, THH).

Therefore, the probability of getting two heads when three coins are tossed simultaneously is calculated by dividing the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of outcomes, which is 3/8 or 0.375. So, the probability of getting two heads when three coins are tossed simultaneously is 0.375.
