(b) How many possible outcomes if the coin is tossed.

(i) four times?

(ii) five times?

(iii) $\mathrm{n}$ times?

 (a) A coin is tossed three times

So possible number of outcomes $=2^{3}=8$

(HHH,HHT,HTH,HTT,THH,THT,TTH,TTT)

(b) i) A coin is tossed four times

So possible number of outcomes $=2^{4}=16$

(HHHH,HHHT,HHTH,HHTT,HTHH,HTHT,HTTH,HTTT, THHH,THHT,THTH,THTT,TTHH ,TTHT,TTTH,TTTT)

(ii) A coin is tossed n times

So possible number of outcomes $=2^{n}$
