Detailed Solution

Given that three coins are tossed 200 times.
Total number of tosses = 200
Let an event A be the probability of 2 heads coming up.
The number of times 2 heads occur = 72
Using the formula of probability,
Probability of event A=  No. of favourable outcomes   Total no  of outcomes     P(A)=  No. of times 2 heads occur   Total no , of tosses   
Putting values in above expression we get,
P(A)= 72 200 P(A)=  9 25  
Hence the probability of 2 heads coming up is 9 25  .
Therefore the answer is option (1).
