It is 10C3*(1/2)10 = 10*9*8/(3*2*1)*(1/1024) = 0.1172, approx.
Since it is a fair coin, the probability is 0.5
The probability of getting 3 or more heads in a row, one or more times is 520/1024 = 0.508 Of these, the probability of getting exactly 3 heads in a row, exactly once is 244/1024 = 0.238
It is 0.1042
To find the probability of getting exactly two heads when tossing a coin three times, we first determine the total number of possible outcomes, which is (2^3 = 8). The favorable outcomes for getting exactly two heads are: HHT, HTH, and THH, totaling 3 outcomes. Therefore, the probability of getting exactly two heads is ( \frac{3}{8} ).
To find the probability of getting exactly two heads in four coin tosses, we can use the binomial probability formula. The number of ways to choose 2 heads from 4 tosses is given by the binomial coefficient ( \binom{4}{2} = 6 ). The probability of getting heads on each toss is ( \frac{1}{2} ), so the probability of getting exactly 2 heads is ( \binom{4}{2} \times \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2 \times \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2 = 6 \times \frac{1}{16} = \frac{6}{16} = \frac{3}{8} ). Thus, the probability of getting exactly two heads is ( \frac{3}{8} ).
Since it is a fair coin, the probability is 0.5
1/2, or 50% since you are only asking what the probability of the last outcome is.
The probability of getting 3 or more heads in a row, one or more times is 520/1024 = 0.508 Of these, the probability of getting exactly 3 heads in a row, exactly once is 244/1024 = 0.238
50%
It is 0.1042
There is a 50% chance that it will land on heads each toss. You need to clarify the question: do you mean what is the probability that it will land on heads at least once, exactly once, all five times?

If p is the probability that any one toss lands on "heads", the probability that exactly 4 toss out of 8 lands on head is this: p^4 * (1-p)^4 * C(4,8) Where C(k,n) is an old notation for n! / ( k! * (n-k)! ) So C(4,8) = 8! / ( 4! * 4!) = 8*7*6*5 / 24 = 70 If your coin is well balanced, p is 50% and you get your answer: (0.5)^8 * 70 = 70/256 =~ 27,34%
The answer depends on how many times the coin is tossed. The probability is zero if the coin is tossed only once! Making some assumptions and rewording your question as "If I toss a fair coin twice, what is the probability it comes up heads both times" then the probability of it being heads on any given toss is 0.5, and the probability of it being heads on both tosses is 0.5 x 0.5 = 0.25. If you toss it three times and want to know what the probability of it being heads exactly twice is, then the calculation is more complicated, but it comes out to 0.375.
