A coin has two (major) sides and neither side has any more advantage than the other.
100 (percent) divided by 2 (sides) = 50
There is a 50% chance (or 1/2) of the coin landing on tails.

What is the possible outcome of flipping a coin?
Each time you flip a fair coin it has the same equal chance of landing on heads or tails. That is, even if you get (for example) 19 heads in a row, the next flip still has 50% chance of landing on tails (if the coin is fair).
What is the probability of getting at least two tails?
That depends how many times you flip the coin.
What is the probability that Jen will roll a 3 on a number cube and flip tails on a coin?
There is a 1/6 chance for the 3 and a 1/2 chance for the coin. Multiply them to get a 1/12 chance for both. ~.0833%
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 three tails if you flip a coin three times?
Since the probability of getting tails is 50% or 0.5, the probability of three tails would be 0.5*0.5*0.5=0.125 or 12.5 %

What is the probability of getting heads on the one flip of coin?
There are two sides to the coin, so the probability of getting heads or tails on one flip of the coin is 1/2 or 50%.
What is the probability of getting exactly seven tails if you flip a coin eight times?
The probability of getting exactly seven tails if you flip a coin eight times is: P(7T1H) = 8∙(1/2)8 =0.03125 ≈ 3.1%
While flipping a coin 100 times John gets 44 heads and 56 tails Enter the theoretical probability of getting a tail while flipping a perfectly balanced coin?
Every time you flip a coin it has a 50% chance of heads and a 50% chance of tails. Flipping a coin multiple times does not change that. Therefore the answer is 50%

If you flip of coin what the chance of getting heads?
50% I thought that should be obvious...

What is the probability of getting all heads or all tails if you flip a coin three times?
The probability of getting all heads if you flip a coin three times is: P(HHH) = 1/2 ∙ 1/2 ∙ 1/2 = 1/8. The probability of getting all tails if you flip a coin three times is: P(TTT) = 1/2 ∙ 1/2 ∙ 1/2 = 1/8. The probability of getting all heads or all tails if you flip a coin three times is: P(HHH or TTT) = P(HHH) + P(TTT) = 2/8 = 1/4.
If you flip a coin 4 times which is more likely-getting 2 heads and 2 tails or getting 3 heads and one tail?
2 heads and 2 tails
You flip a coin nine times and obtain ttttttttt if you flip the coin one more time what is the probability of getting h?
The probability of a flipped coin landing heads or tails will always be 50% either way, no matter how many times you flip it.
