√121 = 11
√100 = 10
120 is closer to 121 than to 100.
∴ √120 is closer to √121 than to √100,
that is, √120 is closer to 11 than to 10.

1 For a fair coin, both head and tail are

equally likely outcomes.

Accordingly, if a fair coin is tossed 200

times, the probability of obtaining heads is
50%, that is, 100 times.

Hence, coin C is most likely to be a fair coin.
