Three coins are tossed simultaneously. What is the probability of getting no head ?

Options

A. `1/8`
B. `1/4`
C. `3/8`
D. `3/4`

Answer

To solve the problem of finding the probability of getting no head when three coins are tossed simultaneously, we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Determine the total number of outcomes
When three coins are tossed, each coin has 2 possible outcomes: Head (H) or Tail (T). Therefore, the total number of outcomes when tossing three coins can be calculated using the formula for the total outcomes of independent events:

\[ \text{Total outcomes} = 2^n \]

where \( n \) is the number of coins. Here, \( n = 3 \):

\[ \text{Total outcomes} = 2^3 = 8 \]
