Two coins are tossed and the up faces of both coins are recorded. List all the simple events for
this experiment.
Solution
Even for a seemlingly trivial experiment, we must be careful when listing the simple events. At
first glance the basic outcomes seem to be Observe two heads, Observe two tails, Observe one
head and one tail. However, further reflection reveals that the last of these, Observe one head and
one tail, can be decomposedinto Head on coin 1, Tail on coin 2 and Tail on coin 1, Head on coin
2. Thus, the simple events are as follows:
1. Observe HH
2. Observe HT
3. Observe TH
4. Observe TT
(where H in the first proposition means "Head on coin 1," H in the second proposition means
"Head on coin 2," etc.)
