What is the probability of tossing a coin 6 times and obtaining at least 3 consecutive heads?
The probability is 5/16.
What is the empirical probability of tossing a coin 5 times and obtaining at least 3 consecutive heads?
The empirical probability can only be determined by carrying out the experiment a very large number of times. Otherwise it would be the theoretical probability.
What is the probability of NOT tossing two heads with two fair coins?
It is 3/4 or 0.75
What is the probability of tossing a coin three times and getting it on heads each time?
Each toss has a 1/2 probability of getting heads. Each toss is an independent event. So three heads in a row (heads AND heads AND heads) would have a probability of:1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = (1/2)^3 = 1/(2^3) = 1/8 = 12.5%
What is the probability of getting 6 heads in tossing 6 coins in 6 tosses?
The probability of tossing 6 heads in 6 dice is 1 in 26, or 1 in 64, or 0.015625. THe probability of doing that at least once in six trials, then, is 6 in 26, or 6 in 64, or 3 in 32, or 0.09375.
What is the probability of tossing heads then heads and then tails when tossing a coin 3 times?
3 out of 6
What is the probability of tossing a coin 6 times and obtaining at least 3 consecutive heads?
The probability is 5/16.
Renee tossed 12 heads when tossing a coin 18 times. What is the experimental probability?
P(Heads) = 2/3
What is the probability of tossing a coin 3 times and getting 3 heads?
There are 23 or 8 possibilities; one is HHH. So, probability of HHH is 1/8 or 0.125.
What is the probability of getting three heads in tossing a coin three times?
It is (1/2)3 = 1/8 or 0.125
What is the empirical probability of tossing a coin 5 times and obtaining at least 3 consecutive heads?
The empirical probability can only be determined by carrying out the experiment a very large number of times. Otherwise it would be the theoretical probability.
What is the probability of getting exactly 2 heads of tossing 4 coin?
It is 3/8.
What is the probability of NOT tossing two heads with two fair coins?
It is 3/4 or 0.75
What is the probability of a coin tossed five times to get three heads?
Each coin toss is a Bernoulli trial with a probability of success of .5. The probability of tossing heads exactly 3 times out of five is3 ~ Bin(5, 1/2), which equals(5!/(3!(5-3)!))(0.5^3)(1-0.5)^(5-3), which is 0.3125.

What is the probability of rolling a three or a six on a die then tossing a heads on a coin?
First event is to roll a 3 or 6 on a die, which gives you a probability of 2 out of 6. Second event is tossing a heads on a coin, so a probability of 1 out of 2. Since both chances are not related, you can multiply both chances: 2/6 times 1/2 = 1/6 = 0,166666...
