you need to know more about the paper cup. what is its shape? is it weighted more on a side or bottom? when you are computing the chances are you including your knowledge of the outcome of the previous 365 times you tossed the cup? how are you tossing it? how high are you tossing it? etc.
clearly there is a lot of unanswered questions before we can give a good answer.

What is the probability that a coin will turn up heads?
ignoring the minute chance that it will land on it's side as well as assuming that the air resistance due to the different patterns in the coin is negligible the chance of a coin landing heads is 50%
How many times will a paper cup land on its side when tossed every day for a year?
It depends on how often it is thrown, but it will usually land on its side about 98% of the time.
Is it possible to flip a coin and it landing on its side?
Anything is possible!

If a coin is flipped 7 times what is the probability of landing on all tails?
each time you flip the coin, probability to end on either side is 50% (or 0.5) (we disregard landing on the side). So, to land on the same side 7 times, it is: 0.5^7
Are the outcomes different if you toss 3 coins instead of tossing a coin 3 times?
Assuming that if you had 3 coins and they were all the same, then no, the outcomes would not be different than if you flipped the same coin 3 times. Flipping a coin has a 1/2 chance of landing on 1 face, and 1/2 chance that it will land on the other: -Flipping the same coin 3 times: 1/2 chance of the coin landing on one face -Flipping 3 coins one time each: Still 1/2 chance of each of the 3 coins landing on one face. These chance percentages are fairly vague. Of course there is an absolute minuscule percentage that the coin(s) could land on their side instead of either face or that one side could have a higher chance than the other, but the chances of that happening are so small there is no point complicating this answer and so extreme details like this are ignored.
What is the answer to finding the probability when a cube is tossed?
If the cube is uniformly weighted there is a 1 in 6 chance of any side landing face-up
What is the probability of a flipped coin landing on its side?
The probability of a coin landing head-side down is 0.5 The probability of landing head-side up is 0.5 Did you mean to ask the probability of it landing on its edge ?
If a dice has the numbers 1 2 2 3 4 and 5 how many times would the number 2 come up?
A dice has six sides, so it has a chance of one-in-six of landing on one particular side. Therefore, one with two 2's would have a chance of one in three of coming up.
What is the probability that a coin will turn up heads?
ignoring the minute chance that it will land on it's side as well as assuming that the air resistance due to the different patterns in the coin is negligible the chance of a coin landing heads is 50%
The probability that a coin flip will come up heads?
Assuming: (a) the coin is fair (each side is the same exact weight) (b) the chance of the coin landing in its side is eliminated (c) the coin is not acted on by any forces such as magnetism The chance of the coin displaying heads is 50%, or 1/2.

If you flip a coin what is the chance of getting tails?
A coin has two (major) sides and neither side has any more advantage than the other. 100 (percent) divided by 2 (sides) = 50 There is a 50% chance (or 1/2) of the coin landing on tails.
