How many possible outcomes if each coin is flipped once?
We use three coins (quarter, nickel, dime) each are flipped only once. We get 8 possible outcomes (or four outcomes as an alternative).
How many possible outcomes of tossing three coins?
There are 23 = 8 possible outcomes.
What is the probability of flipping three tails when three coins are flipped?
The probability of flipping three tails with three coins is (1 in 2)3 or 1 in 8 or 0.125.
What is the probability of getting at least 2 heads in three flips of a fair coin?
In three flips of a fair coin, there are a total of 8 possible outcomes: T, T, T; T, T, H; T, H, T; T, H, H; H, H, H; H, H, T; H, T, H; H, T, T Of the possible outcomes, four of them (half) contain at least two heads, as can be seen by inspection. Note: In flipping a coin, there are two possible outcomes at each flipping event. The number of possible outcomes expands as a function of the number of times the coin is flipped. One flip, two possible outcomes. Two flips, four possible outcomes. Three flips, eight possible outcomes. Four flips, sixteen possible outcomes. It appears that the number of possible outcomes is a power of the number of possible outcomes, which is two. 21 = 2, 22 = 4, 23 = 8, 24 = 16, .... Looks like a pattern developing there. Welcome to this variant of permutations.

How many possible outcomes if each coin is flipped once?
We use three coins (quarter, nickel, dime) each are flipped only once. We get 8 possible outcomes (or four outcomes as an alternative).
How many possible outcomes of tossing three coins?
There are 23 = 8 possible outcomes.
Two coins are flipped and a die is rolled how many possible outcomes are there?
Each coin can land in two ways.The die has 6 possible outcomes.So there are 2 x 2 x 6 = 24 possible outcomes for the whole experiment.Note that I am assuming the coins can be told apart - say the first coin and 2nd coin and that H and then T is different that T and then H. If not, then there are only be three outcomes for the coins-- 2 heads, 1 head or no heads and the total number of outcomes would be 3 X 6 = 18.
How many possible outcomes would be if three coins were tossed once?
There are eight (8).
How many possible outcomes would there be if three coins were each tossed onces?
Eight of them.
What is the probability of getting three or more heads when four coins are flipped?
Number of possible outcomes with 4 coins = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 16.Number of successes = 2. (Three heads or four heads)Probaility of success = 2/16 = 1/8 = 12.5 percent
How many outcomes are possible if you toss n coins?
There are three possibilities, Heads, Tails and stand on edge
Three fair coins are flipped Describe the sample space for this experiment Find the probability that the coin comes up tails at most twice?
Sample space: {hhh,hht,hth,htt,ttt,tth,tht,thh} 8 possible outcomes
How many possible outcomes would there be if three coins were tossed up three times?
9, you just have to multiply for problems like this
What are the possible outcomes if three coins are tossed and die is rolled?
There are 48 possible outcomes and I have no intention of listing them all. They are all of the form CCCD where C = H or T, and D takes the numeric values from 1 to 6.
How many possible outcomes when tossing 3 coins?
three heads two head, one tails one heads, two tails three tails
What is the probability of obtaining two tails or more if three coins are flipped?
It is 0.5
