What is the probability of tossing tails on a coin four times in a row?
The probability of Tails on the first toss is 0.5 .The probability of Tails on the second toss is 0.5 .The probability of Tails on the third toss is 0.5 .The probability of Tails on the fourth toss is 0.5 .The probability of all four is (0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5) = 0.0625 = 6.25%
Tossing a coin 9 times and getting tails what is the probability of getting tails on the next toss?
Since each event is independent, the probability remains at 0.5.

(.5)^4=.0625
What is the probability of tossing 2 heads and 2 tails with a coin tossed 4 times?
When h=head, t=tails First toss: heads/tails (1h/1t) Second toss: heads/tails (2h/1h1t*2/2t) Third toss: heads/tails (3h/2h1t*3/1h2t*3/3t) Fourth toss: heads/tails (4h/3h1t*4/2h2t*6/1h3t*4/4t) In short, 1+4+6+4+1=16 Chances of getting 2 heads and 2 tails = 6/16 * 100% = 37.5%

What is the probability of getting tails on all 7 tosses if a fair coin is tossed 7 times?
The probability of Tails on the first toss is 1/2.The probability of Tails on the second toss is 1/2.The probability of Tails on the third toss is 1/2.The probability of Tails on the fourth toss is 1/2.The probability of Tails on the fifth toss is 1/2.The probability of Tails on the sixth toss is 1/2.The probability of Tails on the seventh toss is 1/2.The probability of all of them is (0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5) = (0.5)7 = 0.0078125= 0.78125 %
What is the probability of getting tails on the first toss and heads on the second toss?
1 in 2 to get tails on first toss 1 in 2 to get heads on second toss To get tails on first toss and heads on second toss, probability is 1/2 x 1/2 = 1 in 4
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 of a head coming up on the fourth toss?
