To find the probability of getting at least one head in 4 coin tosses, it's easier to calculate the complementary probability of getting no heads at all (i.e., getting all tails). The probability of getting tails in a single toss is 0.5, so for 4 tosses, the probability of all tails is ( (0.5)^4 = 0.0625 ). Therefore, the probability of getting at least one head is ( 1 - 0.0625 = 0.9375 ) or 93.75%.
The probability that a coin will land on heads - at least once - in six tosses is 0.9844
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.

The probability that a coin will land on heads - at least once - in six tosses is 0.9844
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.
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%
1 - (1/2)5 = 31/32
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
To calculate the probability of getting at least four heads when flipping a coin six times, we can use the binomial probability formula. The total number of outcomes for six flips is (2^6 = 64). The probabilities for getting exactly four, five, and six heads can be calculated using the binomial formula, and their sum gives the total probability of getting at least four heads. This results in a probability of approximately 0.65625, or 65.625%.
The probablility of getting 2 tails in 4 tosses of a fair coin is most likely 50%, 2/4=1/2, or .50.
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.
