Detailed Solution

It is given that, 3 coins tossed for 500 times.
We have to find the probability of getting more than one head.
The total number of outcomes is given by,
=300  
The number of times of getting one or more than one head is given by,
=150+100+130 =380  
The probability of getting one or more than one head is given by,
= 380 500 = 19 25  
To find the probability of one and more than one head, probability at least one head event is considered.
The probability of getting one or more than one head is 19 25  .
Hence, option 2 is correct.
