What is the probability that exactly two times head are being tossed?
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.
If a coin is flipped twice what is the probability that both will be heads?
The sample space is HH, HT, TH, HH. Since the HH combination can occur once out of four times, the probability that if a coin is flipped twice the probability that both will be heads is 1/4 or 0.25.
If you flip a coin 5 times what is the probability that the results are all heads or all tails?
The probability of getting all heads or all tails in 5 flips of a coin is 1 in 16.The probability of getting a head or a tail on the first flip is 1 in 1. The probability of each of the following coins matching the first coin is 1 in 2. Simply multiply the five probabilities (1 in 1) (1 in 2) (1 in 2) (1 in 2) (1 in 2) and you get 1 in 16.It is true that the probability of getting all heads is 1 in 32, and the probability of getting all tails is also 1 in 32. Since the question asked the probability of both cases (all heads or all tails), the answer is 1 in 16.
What is the probability of flipping a coin twice and getting two heads?
The probability is 25%. The probability of flipping a coin once and getting heads is 50%. In your example, you get heads twice -- over the course of 2 flips. So there are two 50% probabilities that you need to combine to get the probability for getting two heads in two flips. So turn 50% into a decimal --> 0.5 Multiply the two 50% probabilities together --> 0.5 x 0.5 = 0.25. Therefore, 0.25 or 25% is the probability of flipping a coin twice and getting heads both times.
A fair coin with 1 marked on one face and 6 on the other and a fair die are both tossed Find the probability that the sum of numbers that turn up is 3?
You have 12 options (2 x 6) that are all equally likely; the only favorable options is (coin 1, die 2), so that makes a probability of 1/12.
The probability that both of two tossed coins will come down heads is?
1 chance in 4
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 that a dime and penny are tossed in the air both that both land on heads?
One out of every four flips

What is the chance that that 2 flipped coins both come up heads?
The probability that 2 flipped coins both come up heads is 0.52 or 0.25
What is the probability of tossing two coins and getting heads on both?
1/2
What is the probability of flipping 2 coins and having both show heads?
If both tosses are fair, the probability of that outcome is one in four.
A box contains three coins 2 of them fair and one two headed coin select at random tossed twice heads appear both time what is the probability that the coin is two headed?
1/4
If you flip two coins the probability that both will come up heads is?
one fourth
What A number cube is rolled and two coins are tossed. What is the probability that the number cube shows a value greater than 4 and both coins are heads?
These are all independent events. So the probability of them all happening is the product of the probabilities of each one of them happening. The desired probability is (2/6)*(1/2)*(1/2)=1/12
A coin is tossed twice what is the probability that it will show heads both times -?
1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4
What are the odds in favor of getting 2 heads when a coin is tossed twice?
One in four. 1:4. The probability of getting heads when a fair coin is tossed is: P(H) = 1/2. The probability of getting heads on a second toss is: P(H) = 1/2, this result is independent of the result of the first toss. The probability of having both events happen (heads on the first and heads on the second toss) is: P(H1UH2) = (1/2)∙(1/2) = 1/4 = 0.25 = 0.25%
