The probability is 2/4 or 4/8 or 1/2. The reason is that if you have 4 identical coins and you flip all of them at once you have half a chance because you could either get all heads, all tails, or a combination.
The probability is 0.375
The probability of flipping one coin and getting tails is 1/2. In order to find the probability of multiple events occurring, you find the product of all the events. For 3 coins the probability of getting tails 3 times is 1/8 because .5 x .5 x .5 = .125 or 1/8.
The probability of getting all tails is 1/25 = 1/32
Well, you have 24 possibilities, and you can get heads 6 ways, so it is 1/4.
The probability of getting all tails when you flip 4 fair coins 1 time is:P(4 tails) = (1/2)4 = 1/16 = 0.0625 = 6.25%
If they are fair coins, the probability is 0.25
The probability is 0.375
The probability of flipping one coin and getting tails is 1/2. In order to find the probability of multiple events occurring, you find the product of all the events. For 3 coins the probability of getting tails 3 times is 1/8 because .5 x .5 x .5 = .125 or 1/8.
The probabilty of you flipping 3 coins and getting all heads or tails is 0.125 or 1/8.
The probability of getting all tails is 1/25 = 1/32
0.54 or 0.0625 or 1/16.
http://wiki.answers.com/Q/If_you_Flip_four_coins_at_once_what_is_probability_of_2_head_and_3_tail" The probability of flipping four coins and getting 2 heads and 3 tails is ZERO 2 heads and 3 tails requires flipping FIVE coins.
There are 8 permutations of flipping a coin 3 times, or of flipping 3 coins one time. They are, with the permutations of two heads bolded...TTTTTHTHTTHHHTTHTHHHTHHH... thus, the probability of flipping a coin 3 times and getting 2 heads is 3 in 8, or 0.375.
The probability of flipping three tails with three coins is (1 in 2)3 or 1 in 8 or 0.125.
1/8 or 12.5%
The probability of flipping three heads when flipping three coins is 1 in 8, or 0.125. It does not matter if the coins are flipped sequentially or simultaneously, because they are independent events.
Well, you have 24 possibilities, and you can get heads 6 ways, so it is 1/4.
