प्रश्न
Why is tossing a coin considered to be a fair way of deciding which team should choose ends in a game of cricket?
उत्तर
No. of possible outcomes while tossing a coin = 2 {1 head & 1 tail}
Probability =`"No.of favorable outcomes"/"Total no.of possible outcomes"`
P(getting head) =1/2
P(getting tail) =1/2
Since probability of two events are equal, these are called equally like events.
Hence, tossing a coin is considered to be a fair way of deciding which team should choose ends in a game of cricket.
