What is the probabiltiy that a coin will land on heads in six tosses?
The probability that a coin will land on heads - at least once - in six tosses is 0.9844
What is the probability of getting 6 heads in tossing 6 coins in 6 tosses?
The probability of tossing 6 heads in 6 dice is 1 in 26, or 1 in 64, or 0.015625. THe probability of doing that at least once in six trials, then, is 6 in 26, or 6 in 64, or 3 in 32, or 0.09375.
What is the probablity of getting at least 1 heads on a 2 tosses of a fair coin?
50/50
Judy tosses a coin 4 times What is the probability of getting at least 2 tails?
50/50
You are tossing three coins and want to determine the probability for getting at least one head?
Pr(At least one head in three tosses) = 1 - Pr(No heads in three tosses) = 1 - Pr(Three tails in three tosses) = 1 - (1/2)*(1/2)*(1/2) = 1 - 1/8 = 7/8 or 0.875 or 87.5%
What is the probabiltiy that a coin will land on heads in six tosses?
The probability that a coin will land on heads - at least once - in six tosses is 0.9844
What is the probability of of tossing heads on the first 6 tosses of a fair coin?
The probability of tossing heads on all of the first six tosses of a fair coin is 0.56, or 0.015625. The probability of tossing heads on at least one of the first six tosses of a fair coin is 1 - 0.56, or 0.984375.
What is the probability of getting 6 heads in tossing 6 coins in 6 tosses?
The probability of tossing 6 heads in 6 dice is 1 in 26, or 1 in 64, or 0.015625. THe probability of doing that at least once in six trials, then, is 6 in 26, or 6 in 64, or 3 in 32, or 0.09375.

Pr(At least one head in three tosses) = 1 - Pr(No heads in three tosses) = 1 - Pr(Three tails in three tosses) = 1 - (1/2)*(1/2)*(1/2) = 1 - 1/8 = 7/8 or 0.875 or 87.5%
What is the probability of getting at least one head in 5 tosses of a coin?
1 - (1/2)5 = 31/32
When you Toss a coin 3 times and what is the probability of getting at least one head?
Pr(At least one head in 3 tosses) = 1 - Pr(No heads in 3 tosses) = 1 - Pr(3 tails in three tosses) = 1 - [Pr(T)*Pr(T)*Pr(T)] since the three tosses are independent. = 1 - 1/2 * 1/2 *1/2 = 1 - 1/8 = 7/8
What is the probability of getting at least 2 tails in 4 tosses of a fair coin?
The probablility of getting 2 tails in 4 tosses of a fair coin is most likely 50%, 2/4=1/2, or .50.
If you were to flip a coin 4 times what is the probability of getting heads at least one time?
As the question is "what is the probability of getting at least one head" the correct way to answer this is to ask what is the probability of not getting any heads and then subtract this from 1.The probability of not getting a head in 4 flips = 0.54 (i.e. 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5) = 1/16.Therefore the probability of getting at least one head is 1 - 1/16 = 15/16.
What is the probability of getting a least one tail when tossing eight fair coins?
The probability of getting at least 1 tails is (1 - probability of getting all heads) The probability of getting all heads (no tails) is ½ x ½ x ½ x ½ x ½ x ½ x ½ x ½ = 1/256 = 0.00390625 so the probability of getting at least ONE tails is 1-0.30390625 = 0.99609375 = 255/256
What is the probability of getting 2 heads when you toss three coins?
If you mean 'at least' 2 heads, the probability is 50%. If you mean exactly 2, the probability is 3/8, or 37.5%. There are 3 independent coin tosses, each of which is equally likely to come up heads or tails. That's a total of 2 * 2 * 2 or 8 possible outcomes (HHH, HHT, HTH, etc.). Of these, 4 include 2 or 3 heads, which is half of 8. Only 3 include exactly 2 heads, so the probability of that is 3/8.
