1/2. It doesn't matter if it's heads or tails, it's still 1/2.
======
If you are talking about the total result of flipping a coin 5 times, you have 31 chances out of 32 (more than 96 percent) that you will get something other than five tails.
The probability of tossing a coin 5 times and getting all tails is:P(TTTTT) = (1/2)5 = 0.03125 ≈ 3.13%
one out of 5 or 2 out of 10
The probability of getting five tails in a row is 1/2^5, or 1 in 32.The probability of getting five heads in a row is 1/2^5, or 1 in 32.Thus, the probability of getting either five heads or five tails in five tosses is 1 in 16.(The caret symbol means "to the power of," as in 2^5 means "2 to the 5th power.")
1/2 chance of getting heads or tails 5 times 1/10
5 independent events, each of them with a probability of 1/2; you need to multiply all together, so you get (1/2) to the power 5.Note: any other specific combination you can get when throwing a coin 5 times - for example, head, tails, head, tails, head - will have the same probability.
P(4T1H)) = 5C4 ∙ (0.5)5 = 5/32 = 0.15625 ≈ 15.6% where 5C4 = 5!/[3!∙(5-3)!] = 5
If you toss a coin often enough, it is a certainty, so that the probability = 1. The probability of that outcome in the first five tosses of a coin is (1/2)5 = 1/32.
1/5 and 1/2.............. 1/10 of getting both in a row
Probability not at least 1 head showing is when all 5 coins are tails: (1/2)5=1/32 Therefore probability at least 1 head is showing is 1-1/32=31/32
Each one is 50% Together it's 25% (.5 x .5 = .25)
The probability of a fair coin landing on tails is 0.5. The probability of 4 tails is .5*5*.5*.5 = 0.0625.
There are 2^5 (2*2*2*2*2), or 32, possible outcomes of tossing a coin 5 times. Only one of those outcomes does not contain any tails. This leaves us with 31/32, or 97% chance of at least one toss coming up tails.
