A fair nickel and a fair dice are tossed once outcomes match when both coins land on heads or both coins land on tails What is the theoretical probability of a match?
The probability of 2 coins both landing on heads or both landing on tails is 1/2 because there are 4 possible outcomes. Head, head. Head, tails. Tails, tails. Tails, heads. Tails, heads is different from heads, tails for reasons I am unsure of.
What are the odds in favor of getting 2 heads when a coin is tossed twice?
One in four. 1:4. The probability of getting heads when a fair coin is tossed is: P(H) = 1/2. The probability of getting heads on a second toss is: P(H) = 1/2, this result is independent of the result of the first toss. The probability of having both events happen (heads on the first and heads on the second toss) is: P(H1UH2) = (1/2)∙(1/2) = 1/4 = 0.25 = 0.25%
Probability of getting both head and tail simultaneously when a coin is tossed?
The probability is 50-50.
A fair die is tossed twice what is the probability that even numbers occur on both throws?
25%
What is the probability of flipping 2 coins and having both show heads?
If both tosses are fair, the probability of that outcome is one in four.
Two coins are tossed What is the probability of both coins are heads?
The probability that both coins are heads is the probability of one coin landing heads multiplied by the probability of the second coin landing heads: (.5) * (.5) = .25 or (1/2) * (1/2) = 1/4
The probability that both of two tossed coins will come down heads is?
1 chance in 4
What is the probability that exactly two times head are being tossed?
The answer depends on how many times the coin is tossed. The probability is zero if the coin is tossed only once! Making some assumptions and rewording your question as "If I toss a fair coin twice, what is the probability it comes up heads both times" then the probability of it being heads on any given toss is 0.5, and the probability of it being heads on both tosses is 0.5 x 0.5 = 0.25. If you toss it three times and want to know what the probability of it being heads exactly twice is, then the calculation is more complicated, but it comes out to 0.375.
A coin is tossed twice what is the probability that it will show heads both times -?
1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4

A coin is tossed twice what is the probability that it will show heads both times?
The probability is 0.25.Look at it this way--if you toss a coin twice, there are four equally-probable outcomes:tails, tailstails, headsheads, tailsheads, headsSo the probability of heads twice in a row is one in four, or 25%.the chance of tossing heads is 1/2 (50%) The chance of tossing the next heads is 1/2 (50%) 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4 (25%)
A box contains three coins 2 of them fair and one two headed coin select at random tossed twice heads appear both time what is the probability that the coin is two headed?
1/4
A fair die is tossed twice what is the probability that even numbers occur on both throws?

What is the probability of flipping 2 coins and having both show heads?
If both tosses are fair, the probability of that outcome is one in four.
What is the probability of a tossed coin landing with the tail side up?
It changes from country to country. In the UK, it is 49% because the queens head side is heavier. In the U.S. both sides are completely equal, as heads and tails is treated as an important game there.
