What is the probability of getting heads on the one flip of coin?
There are two sides to the coin, so the probability of getting heads or tails on one flip of the coin is 1/2 or 50%.
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
A coin is tossed 10 times. What is the probability of getting at least one head?
Assuming that it is a fair coin, the probability is 0.9990
What is the probability of obtaining exactly two heads in three flips of a coin given that at least one is a head?
The probability of obtaining exactly two heads in three flips of a coin is 0.5x0.5x0.5 (for the probabilities) x3 (for the number of ways it could happen). This is 0.375. However, we are told that at least one is a head, so the probability that we got 3 tails was impossible. This probability is 0.53 or 0.125. To deduct this we need to divide the probability we have by 1-0.125 0.375/(1-0.125) = approximately 0.4286
What is the probability of tossing a coin 9 times and getting at least one head?
The probability is 0.998
What is the probability of getting exactly 2 tails of tossing a coin?
The probability of getting two tails when tossing a coin is zero, because the coin can only have one result. If, one the other hand, you toss the coin twice, then the probability of getting two tails is 0.25, i.e. the probability of one tail, 0.5, squared.
What is the probability that the coin shows tails and the die shows a one?

What is the probability of getting heads on the one flip of coin?

What is the probability of flipping a head when you roll a coin 3 times?
If it is a fair coin, the probability of getting at least one Head from 3 flips is 7/8If it is a fair coin, the probability of getting at least one Head from 3 flips is 7/8If it is a fair coin, the probability of getting at least one Head from 3 flips is 7/8If it is a fair coin, the probability of getting at least one Head from 3 flips is 7/8
What is the probability of obtaining at least one head when a coin is flipped four times?
The probability of obtaining 4 tails when a coin is flipped 4 times is: P(4T) = (1/2)4 = 1/16 = 0.0625 Then, the probability of obtaining at least 1 head when a coin is flipped 4 times is: P(at least 1 head) = 1 - 1/16 = 15/16 = 0.9375
What is the probability a coin will land on tails?
50% probablility, or 1/2, that is, a one in two chance.There is an equal chance that the coin will land either heads or tails.
What is the probability of getting at least one head if two coins were flipped?
Let put the question in an other way : obtaining at least one head is the contrary of obtaining two tails at the same time. The probability to obtain one tail with first coin is 1/2, the probability to obtain one tail with the other is also 1/2, so the probability to obtain one tail on each coin is 1/2x1/2 = 1/4 Thus the probability to obtain at least one head is 1-1/4=3/4
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.

What is the probability of getting tails 4 times in a row when you flip a coin?
The probability of each coin flip, independently, is 0.5 or 50%. The probability of getting one result (either heads or tails) four times in a row is 0.5 to the fourth power or 0.0625, which equals 6.25%
If a coin is tossed 3 times what is the probability of 3 heads?
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.
A coin is tossed 10 times. What is the probability of getting at least one head?
Assuming that it is a fair coin, the probability is 0.9990
If a coin is tossed two times what is the probability of getting tails two times in a row?
25% or 0.25 Probability of one tail is 0.50. Since two tails are independent events, the probability is 0.5 x 0.5 = 0.25
