Answer:

1:1

Explanation:

A coin has either a head or tail.

Thus, probability of head = ½

Probability of tail = ½

The first coin is tossed twice and probability of head or tail on both tosses is still ½. Thus, they will have a ratio 1:1.

The second coin is still tossed regardless and thus continuously and so should have same ratio of 1:1.

Therefore, the ratio of the both of them must, also be 1:1.
