Well, isn't that a happy little problem to solve! If there are five coins with a total value of 27 cents, and we want three of them to be pennies, that means the other two coins must add up to 6 cents. The probability of randomly selecting three pennies out of five coins is like painting a beautiful landscape - it's all about understanding the colors and creating a harmonious composition. So, the probability would be the number of ways to choose 3 pennies out of 5 divided by the total number of ways to choose 5 coins. Happy calculating!
The probability of flipping three tails with three coins is (1 in 2)3 or 1 in 8 or 0.125.
12.5%
The probability of something NOT happening is the complement of the probability of something happening. Since the probability that you DO have 3 heads is 1/8 (that is, 1/2 cubed), the complement is 1 - 1/8 = 7/8.
The probability of the first coin landing heads is half (or 1/2). Similarly, the probability of the second and third coins landing heads are also 1/2 in each case. Therefore, the probability of having three heads is: (1/2)(1/2)(1/2) = (1/8)
When we toss a coin getting head or tail have equal probability of 50% - that is, out of the two possible outcomes getting the specified one becomes 1/2 probability. When we toss three coins, the probability of getting all the coins showing tails is given by (1/2) * (1/2) * (1/2) equal to 1/8 or 12.5 % chance. Alikban

To make 53 cents with five coins, you can use two quarters (25 cents each), one nickel (5 cents), and two pennies (1 cent each). This combination adds up to 50 cents from the quarters and nickel, plus 3 cents from the two pennies, totaling 53 cents.
