50%
What is the probability that it will land heads up on the sixth toss?
The probability of a coin landing on heads is 0.5. It does not matter which toss it is, and it does not matter what the toss history was.
If you flip a penny a nickel a dime and a quarter simultaneously what is the probability that the penny and the nickel will come up heads and the dime and quarter come up tails?
1/16 These are four independent events each with a 1/2 probability. The probability that all four occur (penny and nickels heads and dime and quarter tails) is: 1/2*1/2*1/2*1/2=(1/2)4=1/16.
When you toss a coin the probability that it will land heads up is 1 4 or 25 percent?
No, not if it is a fair coin.
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)
