explanation of correct answer : When a coin is toss than it has equal probability of getting tail and head. Means outcomes ‘head’ and ‘tail’ has the equal probability. that is why we have marked false statement which is given in question because the question saying that tail to have a higher chance in the 4th toss which is false , neither tail nor head has higher chance , both has equal chance.

Now question occurs what is probability of getting tail in the 4th toss.

Look when the coin is toss at 4rth time.

It has outcomes of getting tail and head means = 2

our favorable outcomes means getting tail number chances = 1

probability of getting tail = 1/2

and also

probability of getting head = 1/2

So, every time to probability of getting head or tail is 1/2
