If a fair coin is tossed twice, what is the probability of obtaining at least one head?

A.

0.25

B.

0.75

C.

 0.5

D.

 0.33

Correct Answer: 0.75

Explanation

S=HH, HT, TH, TT We can get the result by subtracting the probability of getting no heads with 1. That is, the probability of getting at least one head = 1 minus the probability of getting no heads: P=1−1/4 = 3/4 = 0.75
