I'm assuming that a "1-8 spinner" is similar to an eight-sided die, so the probability of spinning a 10 is zero.

When throwing dice, or flipping a coin, etc., each outcome is independent. That is, it's not influenced by the previous outcome(s). So if you get three 8s in a row then the probability of getting an 8 on the fourth throw remains at 1/8. The probability of an 8 on each and every throw is always 1/8.

If a couple has three daughters what is the probability that the next child is a son if they already have three daughters?

There is no simple answer to the question because the children's genders are not independent events. They depend on the parents' ages and their genes.If you believe that the children's genders are not independent then you would need to get empirical evidence from all families with four or more children in which the first three children were girls. If there are g families in which the fourth is a girl and b where the fourth is a boy then the required probability is b/(g+b).However, if you assume that the children's genders are independent events then, given that the probability of a boy is approx 0.52, the probability of the fourth child is a boy is 0.52


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%


What is the probability of getting tails on all 7 tosses if a fair coin is tossed 7 times?

The probability of Tails on the first toss is 1/2.The probability of Tails on the second toss is 1/2.The probability of Tails on the third toss is 1/2.The probability of Tails on the fourth toss is 1/2.The probability of Tails on the fifth toss is 1/2.The probability of Tails on the sixth toss is 1/2.The probability of Tails on the seventh toss is 1/2.The probability of all of them is (0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5) = (0.5)7 = 0.0078125= 0.78125 %
