The empirical probability of getting heads can be calculated by subtracting the number of tails from the total number of tosses and then dividing by the total number of tosses:
Total tosses = 50
Number of tails = 12
Number of heads = Total tosses - Number of tails = 50 - 12 = 38
Empirical probability of getting heads = Number of heads / Total tosses = 38/50 = 0.76
Therefore, the empirical probability of getting heads is 0.76 or 76%.
You toss a coin 50 times and get 12 tails. What is the empirical probability of getting heads
