How do you draw a probability diagram for the number of heads coming up and how many ways they can occur from flipping three coins?

There are 8 permutations of three coins ...
T T T
T T H
T H T
T H H
H T T
H T H
H H T
H H H
... counting heads and sorting by count, you get ...
0 - T T T
1 - T T H
1 - T H T
1 - H T T
2 - T H H
2 - H T H
2 - H H T
3 - H H H
... so, the probability of each possible number of heads is 0: 1 in 8, 1: 3 in 8, 2: 3 in 8, and 3: 1 in 8.

What is the probability of flipping a coin and getting tails and than rolling a number greater than two on a number cube?
The probability of getting tails on a coin is SMALLER than rolling a number greater than 2
How do you find probability from a probability generating function?
you ether use a graph tree diagram or web diagram to answer the possible outcomes of the question possible outcomes meaning the number of outcomes the person will have in the probability or divide the number of favourable outcomes by the number of possible outcomes favorible outcomes meaning the number of outcomes all together
A diagram used to determine the number of possible outcomes in a probability situation?
a sample .... i think
What is the probability of flipping 91 coins and getting a head 91 times in a row?
The probability of flipping 91 coins and getting a head 91 times in a row is 1/291 or (1/2)91 or 4.039E-28. The (1/2)91 is when there is exactly 91 coin tosses or n = 91. As the number of trials increases so does the probability of at least 1 run of length 91. The average number of coin flips to see 91 in a row is 4.951760157141521e+27
What is the probability of not coming a number greater than 2 when a die is thrown?
1/3
What is the probability of rolling a prime number and flipping a coin and getting tails?
1 in 2.
What is the probability of rolling a 5 on a number cube and then flipping tails on a coin?
1/24
What is the probability of flipping heads and rolling an odd number?
These would be independent events; therefore, we can multiply the probabilities of each of the two events. Probability of flipping a head: 1/2 Probability of rolling an odd number with a single die: 1/6 Required probability : 1/2 x 1/6 = 1/12
What is the probability of flipping 25 heads in a row?
The best way to think about this is the following way: What is the probability of flipping heads once? 1/2 What is the probability of flipping heads twice? 1/4 (1/2 * 1/2) Using this we can derive the equation to find the probability of flipping heads any number of times. 1/2n Using this we plug in 25 for n and get 1/225 or as a decimal 2.98023224 x 10-8 or as odds 1:33,554,432
What is the probability of rolling a 1 or 6 on a number cube and flipping tails on a coin?
The probability of flipping tails on a perfect coin in a perfect toss is 0.5. The probability of rolling 1 on a die is 1 in 6. Likewise, the probability of rolling 6 on a die is 1 in 6. So the probability of rolling either 1 or 6 is 2 in 6 (which is 1 in 3).
What is the probability of getting heads when flipping a coin and getting a number greater than or equal to 4 when rolling a die?
It is 0.25

What is the probability of rolling a 4 on a number cube and flipping tails on a coin?
The probability of rolling any number on a cube can be represented by the formula: X / the number of variables. Since any cube has 6 sides, the probability of rolling any of the numbers 1 through 6 on the cube, can be represented by the formula: X = 1 / 6 = 16.66% The odds or probability of flipping a coin and landing it on either side can be represented by X = the requested result / the number of variables = 1 /2 = 50% Therefore, given the two questions of probability, there is a much greater chance of landing a coin on "tails" rather than rolling a "4".
An experiment consists of flipping a coin and then rolling a die What is the probability of observing a head on the coin or a 3 on the die?
The probability of flipping a Head is the same as that for a Tail and is 1/2 or 50%. The probability of rolling a particular number on a die is 1/6 since there are 6 numbers. Combining these two probabilities (by multiplication) we have, as the combined probability 1/2 x 1/6 = 1/12 = 0.0833333333333333(the 3 recurs) which as a percentage is 8.33333333333%
What is the probability of flipping 91 coins and getting a head 91 times in a row?
The probability of flipping 91 coins and getting a head 91 times in a row is 1/291 or (1/2)91 or 4.039E-28. The (1/2)91 is when there is exactly 91 coin tosses or n = 91. As the number of trials increases so does the probability of at least 1 run of length 91. The average number of coin flips to see 91 in a row is 4.951760157141521e+27
