When h=head, t=tails
First toss: heads/tails (1h/1t)
Second toss: heads/tails (2h/1h1t*2/2t)
Third toss: heads/tails (3h/2h1t*3/1h2t*3/3t)
Fourth toss: heads/tails (4h/3h1t*4/2h2t*6/1h3t*4/4t)
In short, 1+4+6+4+1=16
Chances of getting 2 heads and 2 tails = 6/16 * 100% = 37.5%
The probability of a tossed coin landing heads up is 0.5, or 50%. This is because there are two equally likely outcomes when tossing a fair coin: heads or tails. Therefore, the likelihood of the coin landing on either side is the same.
Coins do not have numbers, there is only the probability of heads or tails.
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.
50/50
well it depends on what you are tossing, if its a coin then no. it can be heads too. it would have to be a great coincidence for it to be all tails, but thats why the word probability comes in meaning that there is more than one outcome
3 out of 6
There are 8 possible outcomes when a coin is tossed 3 times. Here they are:1. Heads, Heads, Tails.2. Heads, Tails, Heads.3. Tails, Heads, Heads.4. Heads, Heads, Heads.5. Tails, Tails, Heads.6. Tails, Heads, Tails.7. Heads, Tails, Tails.8. Tails, Tails, Tails.There is only one outcome that is heads, heads, heads, so the probability of three heads coming up in three coin tosses is 1 in 8 or 0.125 for that probability.

The probability of tossing a coin twice and getting tails both times is 1 in 4, or 25%. If you have already tossed a coin and had it land on tails, the probability that it will land on tails again the next time you toss it is 50%.

Heads or tails; each have a probability of 0.5 (assuming a fair coin).
only about 75% because very often it is not equal The probability of 3 heads and 3 tails is 0.3125
It is 1/2.
Zero. Since coins land on Heads or Tails and not numbers.
The probability to get heads once is 1/2 as the coin is fair The probability to get heads twice is 1/2x1/2 The probability to get heads three times is 1/2x1/2x1/2 The probability to get tails once is 1/2 The probability to get tails 5 times is (1/2)5 So the probability to get 3 heads when the coin is tossed 8 times is (1/2)3(1/2)5=(1/2)8 = 1/256 If you read carefully you'll understand that 3 heads and 5 tails has the same probability than any other outcome = 1/256 As the coin is fair, each side has the same probability to appear So the probability to get 3 heads and 5 tails is the same as getting for instance 8 heads or 8 tails or 1 tails and 7 heads, and so on
