How do you find experimetal probability?
Experimental probability is calculated by taking the data produced from a performed experiment and calculating probability from that data. An example would be flipping a coin. The theoretical probability of landing on heads is 50%, .5 or 1/2, as is the theoretical probability of landing on tails. If during an experiment, however, a coin is flipped 100 times and lands on heads 60 times and tails 40 times, the experimental probability for this experiment for landing on heads is 60%, .6 or 6/10. The experimental probability of landing on tails would be 40%, .4, or 6/10.
What is the probability of tossing heads then heads and then tails when tossing a coin 3 times?
3 out of 6
How do you write probability?
Generally you should express it as a number between 0 (impossible) and 1 (absolute certainty). Either as a decimal or fraction is OK. For example, the probability of a fair coin toss landing on heads is 0.5. The probability of a fair die landing on 4 is 1/6. But it's also common to see probability written as a percentage between 0% (impossible) and 100% (absolute certainty). So P(coin landing on heads)=50.0% and P(die landing on 4)=16.7%.
Probability is the what that something will or will not occur?
Probability is the likelihood that something will occur. If you subtract it from 1, we get the likelihood (or probability) that it will not occur. If a coin is tossed and rolls heads 6 times, the (empirical) probability of obtaining a head is 6/10 or .6. 1-.6 =.4 is the empirical probability (or likelihood) of not getting a head.
A spinner a-f what is the probability of the spinner landing on b then landing on a?
Assuming that it is a regular shaped spinner, the probability is 1/6*1/6 = 1/36

What is the probability of tossing a coin and landing on heads and rolling 5 on a single fair 6 sided dice?
the probability of tossing a coin and it landing on head is a 1 in 2 chance the probability of rolling a 5 on a dice is a 1 in 6 chance
What is the probability of a coin landing on heads and a dice landing on an Evan number?
Coin landing of heads = 1/2 (either heads or tails) Dice landing on even number = 1/2 (no matter how many faces there are on the dice unless the number of faces is odd, 6 sided=3 even sides/6)
What is the probability of tossing heads then heads and then tails when tossing a coin 3 times?
3 out of 6
What is the probability of tossing a coin 6 times and obtaining at least 3 consecutive heads?
The probability is 5/16.
If a die is tossed once probability of it landing on a 6?
Since there are 6 possible outcomes, and you want the probability of obtaining one of the outcomes (in your case 6), the probability of it landing on a 6 is 1/6.

What is the probability of tossing 4 pennies and landing on heads twice and tails twice?
4C2(1/2)4 = 6/16 = 3/8
What is the probability of a coin tossed 6 times to have 3 heads and 3 tails?
50/50
What is the probability the cube will land on 4 and the coin will land heads up?
There is a 1/6 chance of rolling a 4 on a fair die, and a 1/2 chance of a fair coin landing heads up. Multiply 1/6 X 1/2. The probability of both happening is 1/12.
