The answer depends on what a winner is: 1 H?, a run of 3 H?
If the winner is one H, the probability of getting exactly one winner - no more no fewer - is 5/32.
The probability of tossing two heads in two coins is 0.25.
1/2

50%
The probability is 3/8 = 0.375
3/8

3/8 * * * * * That is the probability of getting EXACTLY 1H. The prob of getting one (or more) head is 7/8
is it 50% or 100% dang, i just confused myself. what if you toss 3 coins all at the same time... what's the probability of getting a head then, is it > 100% ? Doh!
The probability is 1/16.
The probability of getting two tails in the first two is 1/4. And it does not matter how many more times the coins are tossed after the first two tosses.
Coins do not have numbers, there is only the probability of heads or tails.
