What is the probability of flipping four coin's to get a head?
The probability of NOT getting heads is (1/2)4=1/16 Therefore the probability of getting heads is 1-1/16=15/16
Two dice rolled what is the probability of getting 16?
Assuming a 6 sided die, a roll of 2 gives a maximum value of 12. So the probability of getting a 16 is zero.
What is the probability of getting tails if a coin is tossed 4 times?
If you look at the as the probability of getting 1 or more tail in 4 coin tosses, you would then calculate the probability of tossing 4 heads in a row and subracting that from 1. The probability fo tossing 4 heads is 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/16. 1 - 1/16 = 15/16.
When 2 die are rolled what is the probability of getting a sum of 16?
If 2 standard dice are rolled, the odds of getting a sum of 16 is zero. The highest sum possible is 12.
What is the probability of tossing a coin 5 times and getting at least one tail and one head?
This is one of those cases where it is probably easier to think what is the probability of not doing it, then subtracting that from 1 to get the probability of doing it. To not get at least one head and one tail, you would have to get all heads or all tails. To get all heads, the probability is (1/2)5. To get all tails is the same probability; so double it to get the probability of either of those. 2(1/2)5=1/16. Subtract the 1/16 from 1 to get 15/16. Answer: 15/16

If you toss 4 coins what is the probability of getting four heads and zero tails?
The probability of getting a head is 1/2 and if you toss it 4 times, the probability of 4 heads is (1/2)^4=1/16 since the tosses are independent events.
What is the probability of getting five tails in a row?
The probability of getting five tails in a row is 1/2^5, or 1 in 32.The probability of getting five heads in a row is 1/2^5, or 1 in 32.Thus, the probability of getting either five heads or five tails in five tosses is 1 in 16.(The caret symbol means "to the power of," as in 2^5 means "2 to the 5th power.")
If you flip a coin 5 times what is the probability that the results are all heads or all tails?
The probability of getting all heads or all tails in 5 flips of a coin is 1 in 16.The probability of getting a head or a tail on the first flip is 1 in 1. The probability of each of the following coins matching the first coin is 1 in 2. Simply multiply the five probabilities (1 in 1) (1 in 2) (1 in 2) (1 in 2) (1 in 2) and you get 1 in 16.It is true that the probability of getting all heads is 1 in 32, and the probability of getting all tails is also 1 in 32. Since the question asked the probability of both cases (all heads or all tails), the answer is 1 in 16.
What is probability if getting picked out of 16 people?
If only one person is picked at random then the probability is 1/16 = 0.0625
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.
Tossing 4 coins and getting tails each time?
The probability for that is (1/2)4 = 1/16.
What is the probability of getting 2 heads in a row followed by two tails on 4 flips of a coin?
1/16
4 coins tossed together. What is the probability of getting 2 tails?
The probability of it is 37.5%. Since there are 16 possible outcomes. calculated by 2 to the power of 4. only 6 gives you the prefered results then it's a simple 6:16 ratio
