A coin will be flipped three times. The result of each flip is either heads (H) or tails (T). The outcome HTH represents the first result is heads, the second result is tails, and the third result is heads. The list of all possible outcomes is shown. Each outcome is equally likely.
HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT
If the result of the first flip is tails, what is the probability that the coin lands on heads two times?

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
