What is Probability?

Probability helps us to know the chances of an event occurring.

[tex]\rm Probability=\dfrac{Desired\ Outcomes}{Total\ Number\ of\ outcomes\ possible}[/tex]

The probability of a penny getting a tail is 0.5 or (1/2), therefore, the probability of four penny getting a tail can be written as,

[tex]\rm Probability = \dfrac14 \times \dfrac14 \times \dfrac14 \times \dfrac14 = \dfrac1{16}[/tex]

Hence, the probability that all four pennies will be tails is (1/16).
