Renee tossed 12 heads when tossing a coin 18 times. What is the experimental probability?
P(Heads) = 2/3
If a coin is tossed 4 times and heads comes up all 4 times the probability of getting heads on the fifth try is?
0.5, 1/2, 50% The probability for heads versus tails does not change based on the amount of times the coin is tossed. It will always be a 50% chance.

What is the probability that a coin tossed in the land with heads up?
It is 0.5
What is the probability of getting 2 heads when 2 coins are tossed?
The probability of tossing two heads in two coins is 0.25.
What is the probability that exactly two times head are being tossed?
The answer depends on how many times the coin is tossed. The probability is zero if the coin is tossed only once! Making some assumptions and rewording your question as "If I toss a fair coin twice, what is the probability it comes up heads both times" then the probability of it being heads on any given toss is 0.5, and the probability of it being heads on both tosses is 0.5 x 0.5 = 0.25. If you toss it three times and want to know what the probability of it being heads exactly twice is, then the calculation is more complicated, but it comes out to 0.375.
If a coin is tossed then what is the probability that the number is 5?
Coins do not have numbers, there is only the probability of heads or tails.
What is the probability of a coin tossed two times to get heads?
It is 3/4
What is the probability that I'll get heads on the next toss if I tossed a coin fifteen times and got heads twelve?
The odds are 50/50. A tossed coin does not have a memory.
If a coin is tossed for 30 times what is the probability of having 10 heads?
10 :)
Tiree tossed a coin 100 times and got 70 heads. how does her probability compare to the mathematical probability?
The mathematical probability of getting heads is 0.5. 70 heads out of 100 tosses represents a probability of 0.7 which is 40% larger.
What is the probability that a coin that is tossed 10 times--- what is the probability of it landing on heads 10 times?
0
Two coins are tossed What is the probability of both coins are heads?
The probability that both coins are heads is the probability of one coin landing heads multiplied by the probability of the second coin landing heads: (.5) * (.5) = .25 or (1/2) * (1/2) = 1/4
What is the probability of a coin tossed five times to get four heads?
It is 5/32 = 0.15625
