What is the probability of flipping three coins and all of them land up on heads?
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)

What are the odds in favor of getting 2 heads when a coin is tossed twice?
One in four. 1:4. The probability of getting heads when a fair coin is tossed is: P(H) = 1/2. The probability of getting heads on a second toss is: P(H) = 1/2, this result is independent of the result of the first toss. The probability of having both events happen (heads on the first and heads on the second toss) is: P(H1UH2) = (1/2)∙(1/2) = 1/4 = 0.25 = 0.25%
What is the probability of tossing four coins and getting four heads if the first two tosses are heads?
The conditional probability is 1/4.
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 of flipping a quarter and getting heads and rolling a die and getting a 6?
The probability of flipping a quarter and getting heads is 1 in 2. the probability of rolling a die and getting 6 is 1 in 6.

The probability of tossing two heads in two coins is 0.25.
What is the probability of flipping 4 coins and getting all heads or all tails?
The probability of getting all heads is 1/24 = 1/16 The probability of getting all tails is also 1/24 = 1/16 The probability of all heads or all tails is the sum of the two = 1/8
What is the probability of flipping three coins and all of them land up on heads?
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)
