Karla tosses a penny 20 times

expect 10 heads

10 times

To determine the outcome of Karla tossing a penny 20 times, you can simulate the coin toss using probability. A penny has two possible outcomes: heads or tails. Each outcome has an equal probability of occurring, which is 1/2 or 0.5.

To simulate Karla's coin toss, you can use a random number generator that generates a random number between 0 and 1. If the number is less than 0.5, you can consider it as heads. Otherwise, it can be considered as tails.

Here's how you can use this approach to simulate Karla tossing a penny 20 times:

1. Start with a count of heads and tails set to zero.
2. Repeat the following steps 20 times:
- Generate a random number between 0 and 1 using a random number generator.
- If the generated number is less than 0.5, increment the count of heads.
- Otherwise, increment the count of tails.
3. After 20 iterations, you will have the total count of heads and tails.

By simulating this process, you can obtain a possible outcome for Karla tossing a penny 20 times. Keep in mind that due to the probabilistic nature of the experiment, the actual result may vary each time you run the simulation.
