First, note that one even is independent of the other. If A and B are two independent events, the probability of A and B, written P(A and B) is P(A)xP(B). So if event A is the probability of a 5, P(A)=1/6 and if B is heads, P(B)=1/2 So P(A and B)=1/6 x1/2=1/12

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 you toss a fair coin 10 times and it lands on heads 8 times what is the probability that it will land on heads?
Since it is a fair coin, the probability is 0.5
What is the probability if you roll a die and it lands on 5 and you flip a coin and it lands on heads?
One in six. One in two.
What is the probability of getting at least 3 tails when tossing a coin six times?
Because a coin is two-sided, 50/50 is always the probability. Unless your coin lands on the grass (on the lawn), then it will probably land on its edge.
What is the expected number of flips of a coin to simulate a six-sided die?
Five coin flips. Any outcome on a six-sided die has a probability of 1 in 6. If I assume that the order of the outcome does not matter, the same probability can be achieved with five flips of the coin. The possible outcomes of five flips of a coin are as follows: 5 Heads 5 Tails 4 Heads and 1 Tails 4 Tails and 1 Heads 3 Heads and 2 Tails 3 Tails and 2 Heads For six possible outcomes.
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%.
What is the Probability that you toss a coin and it lands heads up?
If it is a fair coin, the probability is 1/2.
If you toss a fair coin 10 times and it lands on heads 8 times what is the probability that it will land on heads?
Since it is a fair coin, the probability is 0.5
What is the probability if you roll a die and it lands on 5 and you flip a coin and it lands on heads?
One in six. One in two.
A fair coin is flipped three times what is the probability that the coin lands heads each time?
7/8
You toss a coin 5 times and it lands heads up each time what is the probability that it will lands heads the sixth toss?
1/2, or 50% since you are only asking what the probability of the last outcome is.
What is the theoretical probability that the coin lands heads up when tossed?
1/2 (equal to 0.5, or 50%).
If you were to flip a coin 4 times what is the probability it will land on heads the same number of times that it lands on tails?
50%

What is the probability of flipping heads on the coin?
The probability of flipping Heads on a coin is 1 - a certainty - if the coin is flipped often enough. On a single toss of a fair coin the probability is 1/2.
What is the probability of tossing a coin and landing on heads and rolling 5 on a single fair 6 sided dice?
the probability of tossing a coin and it landing on head is a 1 in 2 chance the probability of rolling a 5 on a dice is a 1 in 6 chance
