If you were to flip a coin 4 times what is the probability of you getting heads at least 3 times?
The total number of outcomes you could get by flipping a coin 4 times is 2^4 or 16 ways as each coin toss yields two possible outcomes (Heads or Tails) and there are four trials. With that said, you need to find out how many ways there are to get 3 heads or 4 heads. You could use combinations to find this:
n C r = n! / [ r! (n-r)! ]
4 C 3 = 4! / [ 3! (4-3)! ]
4 C 3 = 4! / 3!
4 C 3 = 4 4 C 4 = 4! / [ 4! (4-4)! ]
4 C 4 = 4! / 4!
4 C 4 = 1 The total numbers of ways that one could get at least 3 H heads is equal to five (4 ways to get three heads, and one way to get 4 heads). So the probability of getting at least 3 heads in four tosses is equal to 5/16 or 31.25%.

If you were to flip a coin 4 times what is the probability of getting heads at least one time?
As the question is "what is the probability of getting at least one head" the correct way to answer this is to ask what is the probability of not getting any heads and then subtract this from 1.The probability of not getting a head in 4 flips = 0.54 (i.e. 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5) = 1/16.Therefore the probability of getting at least one head is 1 - 1/16 = 15/16.

If you were to flip a coin 6 times what is the probability of you getting at least four heads?
To calculate the probability of getting at least four heads when flipping a coin six times, we can use the binomial probability formula. The total number of outcomes for six flips is (2^6 = 64). The probabilities for getting exactly four, five, and six heads can be calculated using the binomial formula, and their sum gives the total probability of getting at least four heads. This results in a probability of approximately 0.65625, or 65.625%.

What is the probability of getting heads more than once if you flip a coin three times?
For 3 coin flips: 87% chance of getting heads at least once 25% chance of getting heads twice 13% chance of getting heads all three times
What is the probability of flipping a coin 3 times and getting 3 heads?
The probability of flipping a coin 3 times and getting 3 heads is 1/2
What is the probability of tossing a coin 9 times and getting at least one tail?
The probability of tossing a coin 9 times and getting at least one tail is: P(9 times, at least 1 tail) = 1 - P(9 heads) = 1 - (0.50)9 = 0.9980... ≈ 99.8%
When a coin is tossed three times what is the probability of getting at most two heads?
The opposite of getting at most two heads is getting three heads. The probability of getting three heads is (1/2)^2, which is 1/8. The probability of getting at most two heads is then 1 - 1/8 which is 7/8.
What is the probability is of getting 3 heads in a row if I toss the coin 10 times?
