What is theoretical probability that the coin will land on tails?

It is 0.5


What is the probability of getting tails twice in a row?

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%.


What is the probability of a coin landing on either heads or tails?

Since it is a certainty that a coin must land on either heads or tails, the probability must be 1.


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.


If you were to flip a coin 4 times what is the probability it will land on heads the same number of times that it lands on tails?

50%


What is the probability of tossing a coin and getting an even number?

Zero. Since coins land on Heads or Tails and not numbers.


A fair nickel and a fair dice are tossed once outcomes match when both coins land on heads or both coins land on tails What is the theoretical probability of a match?

The probability of 2 coins both landing on heads or both landing on tails is 1/2 because there are 4 possible outcomes. Head, head. Head, tails. Tails, tails. Tails, heads. Tails, heads is different from heads, tails for reasons I am unsure of.


What is the probability of getting at least 3 tails when tossing a coin six times?

Because a coin is two-sided, 50/50 is always the probability. Unless your coin lands on the grass (on the lawn), then it will probably land on its edge.


When A coin is flipped what is probability of getting heads?

50/50. There are two sides (heads and tails), so half of the time it will land on heads. 49.5% or something like that because the coin can land on heads, tails, or on its edge. but the likelihood is like a fraction of a percent, but it is possible


What is the probability that a coin will land on tails 75 percent of the time if flip four times?

For 4 coin tosses, there are 16 possible outcomes. Tails on 75% of 4 tosses is 3 times tails, and 1 time heads. This occurs in 4 of those 16 possibilities, so the probability is 4/16 = 1/4 (or 25%). But if the question is 'what is the probability that it's tails at least 75% of the time, then you have to add in the 1 where all 4 are tails, then you have 5/16 (or 31.25%).


What is the probability if you land head twice and tails once?

The probability is 3/8.


What is the probability of flipping a coin and having it land on heads two times in a row?

We have no way of knowing the probability of any given person flipping any given coin at any given time. But for any two flips of an honest coin, the probability that both are tails is 25% . (1/4, or 3 to 1 against)
