Question

A coin was tossed 20 times and landed on heads 12 times. What percent of the time did it land on heads?

Answer 1

60%

To find this, set up a ratio:

12/20 = x/100

X being the percentage.

Cross multiply 12 and 100 before dividing it by 20 to receive the final answer of 60.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Divide the amount of heads by the amount of tosses.

12÷20=0.6

0.6 is 60%
