Simple question, difficult answer. It depends on how many times you want the penny to land on heads. The probability of a penny landing on heads once is 1 in 2. For it to land on heads twice is 1 in 4, for three times it is 1 in 8, and so on and so forth.

What is the probability of a coin landing on heads?
1 in 2, or 0.5
What is the theoretical probability of throwing a coin and it landing on heads?
Theoretical probability is the number of ways something can occur divided by the total number of outcomes. So, the theoretical probability of throwing a coin and it landing on heads is 1/2 or 0.5 or 50%.
What is the probability of a coin landing on heads twice when it is flipped 2 times?
25%
What is the probability of rolling a penny on heads and roll a three?
1/2 for penny and 1/6 for dice
What is the probability that a penny will land heads up?
The probability of heads is 0.5 or 1/2. This is wrong, the chances of a penny landing heads up is less than 0.5 because the cast in Lincoln's head weighs more than the tails side of the peeny.
When a penny and a nickel are tossed. find the probability that the penny shows heads given that the nickel shows heads?
The probability is 0.5
What is the probability of landing on heads twice?
The probability of landing on heads each time a fair coin is flipped, is 1/2.Assuming that the question was supposed to be:"What is the probability of landing on heads twice in a row?"To calculate compound probabilities like this, we first have to work out the probability of landing on heads each time, and then multiply these two probabilities to get a compound probability.1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4So the probability of landing on heads twice in a row = 1/4 (for a fair coin)
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
What is the probability of the coin landing heads up twice and tails up one?
What is the chance of it landing on heads twice in a row?
What is the probability of 2 coins landing on heads?
well since the coins have two sides,there is a 50% chance of it landing on heads
What is the probability of landing on heads 6 times?
The probability is 6 in 12, or 1 in 2.
What is the probability of landing on an even number when tossing an 8 sided die and tossing a coin and getting heads?
1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4 1/2= probability of landing an even number 1/2 = probability of landing a heads
What is the probability of a coin landing on heads?
1 in 2, or 0.5
What it probability?
probability is the likelihood or possibility of something happen.example:the probability of a coin landing on heads a 50/50 chance.
What is the probability that it will land heads up on the sixth toss?
The probability of a coin landing on heads is 0.5. It does not matter which toss it is, and it does not matter what the toss history was.
What is the theoretical probability of throwing a coin and it landing on heads?
Theoretical probability is the number of ways something can occur divided by the total number of outcomes. So, the theoretical probability of throwing a coin and it landing on heads is 1/2 or 0.5 or 50%.
