Question

I offer to give you $40 if you can flip a coin and have it land on heads 2 times in a row. If you get tails, you have to pay me $10. What is the probability that you will win this bet

Answers

  1. Answer:
    25%
    Step-by-step explanation:
    Each flip has a 50% probability of landing heads.  Two in a row would be (50%)*(50%) = 25%
    [Note:  25% of $40 is $10].  Don’t waste your time.
