Question

Kelvin Piety DeCosta · Answer

yes both have equally likely chances : in india’s case theres a ½ * ½ chance that they would win on the first 2 throws in australia’s case its the same. because hh and th are not counted ….. so only ht and tt are counted meaning that it depends whether or not the 2 nd to last toss is heads or tails.....

Sudha Todi · Answer
