Where do we begin?
Coin Toss Sample SpaceFirst, we consider the sample space of a sequence of three (3) coin tosses. This is because the selection required in the game uses these outcomes. The probability tree diagram [left] is one of the most useful visual representations of the sample space where the order is important. Now, if we were considering tossing just three coins, what would be the probability of each outcome? In this case, the probability for each outcome will be 1/8. |
