What is the probability of tossing four coins and getting four heads if the first two tosses are heads?
The conditional probability is 1/4.
What is the probability of tossing two coins and getting heads on both?
1/2
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 probability of tossing 3 coins and getting 3 tails?
It is (1/2)3 = 1/8
What is the probability of tossing four coins and getting tails on all four?
Assuming it is a fair coin, the probability is 1/24 = 1/16.
What is the probability of tossing four coins and getting four heads if the first two tosses are heads?
The conditional probability is 1/4.
What is the probability of tossing sixteen coins and getting 6 heads?
0.1222...
What is the probability of getting 2 heads when 2 coins are tossed?
The probability of tossing two heads in two coins is 0.25.
When tossing 2 coins the probability of getting exactly 1 tail is .?
0.5
What is the probability of tossing two coins and getting heads on both?
1/2
Probability of getting 1 head tossing two coins?
By tossing two coins the possible outcomes are:H & HH & TT & HT & TThus the probability of getting exactly 1 head is 2 out 4 or 50%. If the question was what is the probability of getting at least 1 head then the probability is 3 out of 4 or 75%
What is the probability of tossing seven coins at one time and having 7 of them come up heads?
The probability would be once in 128 attempts. You don't have to toss seven coins simultaneously. the 7 tosses just have to be independent of one another.
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%
When tossing 2 coins the probability of getting exactly 1 tail is one fourth?
No. It is 1/2.
What is the probability of tossing 3 coins and getting 3 tails?
It is (1/2)3 = 1/8
What is the probability of tossing four coins and getting tails on all four?
Assuming it is a fair coin, the probability is 1/24 = 1/16.
What is the probability of tossing two coins that are different?
The probability of tossing two coins that are different is 1 in 2, or 0.5.The probability of tossing something on the first coin is 1. The probability of not matching that on the second coin is 0.5. Multiply 1 and 0.5 together, and you get 0.5.
