The experimental probability of getting tails can be calculated using the formula:
\[
\text{Experimental Probability} = \frac{\text{Number of tails}}{\text{Total number of flips}}
\]
In this case, the student got 18 tails out of 50 flips. Thus, the experimental probability of getting tails is:
\[
\frac{18}{50}
\]
So, the correct response is:
**18 over 50**.
