You can toss a coin 50 times and get 12 tails. What is the empirical probability of getting heads in percent form

1 answer

To find the empirical probability of getting heads in percent form, we first need to determine the number of times heads occurred in the 50 tosses.

Since there were 50 tosses in total and 12 of them resulted in tails, this means there were 50 - 12 = 38 tosses that resulted in heads.

Now, to find the empirical probability of getting heads, we simply divide the number of times heads occurred by the total number of tosses:

38 heads / 50 tosses = 0.76

Multiplying by 100 to convert to percentage form:

0.76 * 100 = 76%

Therefore, the empirical probability of getting heads in percent form is 76%.
