Answer:
The action of tossing a coin has two possible outcomes: Head or Tail. You don't know which outcome you will obtain on a particular toss, but you do know that it will be either Head or Tail (we rule out the possibility of the coin landing on its edge!). Contrast this with a science experiment.
Answer:
50%
This is because the possibility of obtaining a Head in a coin toss is as likely as obtaining a tail, that is, 50%. So when you toss one coin, there are only two possibilities – a head (H) or a tail (L). However, what if you want to toss 2 coins simultaneously?
