Afair coin is tossed two times in succession. the set of equally likely outcomes is {hh, ht, th, tt}. find the probability of getting exactly one tail.

The event space of getting exactly one tail is {HT, TH}
The sample space is {HH, HT, TH, TT}

There are two ways to get exactly one tail, out of 4 total possible outcomes. 
So 2/4 = 1/2 is the answer

What’s the improper fraction?
