What do you think?
heads to coin tosses. She tossed the coin 30 times and got 17 heads, so 17:30. It's 17:30 because it asks heads to coins. heads first, then coins.
What do you think the second one is?
Victoria tossed a coin 30 times and got 17 heads.
What is the ratio of heads to coin tosses?
What is the ratio of heads to tails?
What is the ratio of tails to heads?
If victoria tosses the coin 150 times, how many times can she expect to get heads?

would second be 17:2?
Wouldn't it be 17:13?
To find heads to tails won't you need to subtract 30 - 17 because she tossed the coin 30 times, got HEADS 17 times, and there are only two things she could get, which is heads and tails.. So, 13 tails. That's what I would think
17:13. Does that make sense? It makes sense to me.. if it doesn't seem right to you, then go with 17:2

and the third one I would say
13:17
Like I explained above why I say 13 is tails.

that makes sense, thank you! would last question be divide 150 by 2?
For a fair coin, the number would be 150 * 1/2 = 75
But, we just went through a lot of work to discover that our coin has a probability of 17/30 for getting heads. So, with that coin, 150 tosses should come up with
150 * 17/30 = 85 heads, not 75.
