What is the probability in percent that a single coin toss will result in heads and tails?
The probability is 0%. The result will be heads or it will be tails but it cannot be heads and tails.
What is the probability that a coin lands on its heads and tails?
The probability of the coin flip being heads or tails is 100%.
If a coin is tossed 3 times what is the probability of 3 heads?
There are 8 possible outcomes when a coin is tossed 3 times. Here they are:1. Heads, Heads, Tails.2. Heads, Tails, Heads.3. Tails, Heads, Heads.4. Heads, Heads, Heads.5. Tails, Tails, Heads.6. Tails, Heads, Tails.7. Heads, Tails, Tails.8. Tails, Tails, Tails.There is only one outcome that is heads, heads, heads, so the probability of three heads coming up in three coin tosses is 1 in 8 or 0.125 for that probability.
What is the probability of a coin landing on heads twice when it is flipped 3 times?
Your question is slightly vague, so I will pose a more defined question: What is the probability of 3 coin tosses resulting in heads exactly twice? This is a pretty easy question to answer. The three possible (winning) outcomes are: 1. Heads, Heads, Tails. 2. Heads, Tails, Heads. 3. Tails, Heads, Heads. If we look at the possible combination of other (losing) outcomes, we can easily determine the probability: 4. Heads, Heads, Heads. 5. Tails, Tails, Heads. 6. Tails, Heads, Tails. 7. Heads, Tails, Tails. 8. Tails, Tails, Tails. This means that to throw heads twice in 3 flips, we have a 3 in 8 chance. This is because there are 3 winning possibilities out of a total of 8 winning and losing possibilities.
What is the probability of getting exactly 3 heads if a fair coin is tossed 8 times?
The probability to get heads once is 1/2 as the coin is fair The probability to get heads twice is 1/2x1/2 The probability to get heads three times is 1/2x1/2x1/2 The probability to get tails once is 1/2 The probability to get tails 5 times is (1/2)5 So the probability to get 3 heads when the coin is tossed 8 times is (1/2)3(1/2)5=(1/2)8 = 1/256 If you read carefully you'll understand that 3 heads and 5 tails has the same probability than any other outcome = 1/256 As the coin is fair, each side has the same probability to appear So the probability to get 3 heads and 5 tails is the same as getting for instance 8 heads or 8 tails or 1 tails and 7 heads, and so on
What is the probability of tossing 4 pennies and landing on heads twice and tails twice?
4C2(1/2)4 = 6/16 = 3/8
What is the probability of a coin?
If you mean what is the probability of getting a heads/tails, it is a 1 in 2 chance (50/50 chance). You are just as likely to get a heads as you are to get a tails.
What is the probability of a coin landing on either heads or tails?
Since it is a certainty that a coin must land on either heads or tails, the probability must be 1.
Seven coins are tossed What is the probability of 3 heads or 2 tails?
The probability of one event or the other occurring is the probability of one plus the probability of the other. The probability of getting 3 heads is the probability of 3 heads (1/23) multiplied by the probability of 4 tails (1/24) multiplied by the number of possible ways this could happen. This is 7c3 or 35. Thus the probability of 3 heads is 0.2734375. The probability of 2 tails is the probability of 2 tails (1/22) multiplied by the probability of 5 heads (1/25) multiplied by the number of ways this could happen. That is 7c5 or 21. Thus the probability of 2 tails is 0.1640625 The probability of one or the other is the sum of their probabilities: 0.1640625 + 0.2734375 = 0.4375 Thus the probability of getting 3 heads or 2 tails is 0.4375.
What is the probability of tossing exactly three tails?
well it depends on what you are tossing, if its a coin then no. it can be heads too. it would have to be a great coincidence for it to be all tails, but thats why the word probability comes in meaning that there is more than one outcome
If you toss 4 coins what is the probability of getting two heads or two tails?
When tossing 4 coins, there are a total of (2^4 = 16) possible outcomes. The combinations for getting exactly 2 heads (and consequently 2 tails) can be calculated using the binomial coefficient, which gives us (\binom{4}{2} = 6) ways. Therefore, the probability of getting exactly 2 heads is ( \frac{6}{16} = \frac{3}{8} ). Since getting 2 heads and 2 tails are the same event, the total probability of getting either 2 heads or 2 tails is also (\frac{3}{8}).
What is the probability of flipping 4 coins and getting all heads or all tails?
The probability of getting all heads is 1/24 = 1/16 The probability of getting all tails is also 1/24 = 1/16 The probability of all heads or all tails is the sum of the two = 1/8
