What is the theoretical probability of tossing a coin?

Answer 1

That's a very complicated calculation, since it depends on so many variables that are

difficult to evaluate or quantify. A few of the factors that would influence it are:

-- whether or not you have a decision to make;

-- how you go about considering the pros and cons, and exactly when you decide to

leave the decision to chance, and to abide by the chance outcome;

-- whether or not you have access to a coin at that moment;

You would need to define your question a little more precisely before it would be possible to estimate an answer. For example, "what is the theoretical probability that any person anywhere on earth tosses a coin within the next one million years?" would give a very different estimated answer than if you asked, "what is the probability that a certain defined person tosses a coin within a defined five minute time span?"

Or your question could be interpreted as to mean, "What are the possible outcomes when tossing a coin, and what is the theoretical probability of each outcome?"
