If it is a fair coin, the probability is exactly 50%. The coin has no memory of what it did in the last flip. ■
3 out of 6
P(Heads) = 2/3
It is 0.3125
It is 1/8 = 0.125
The probability that a coin flipped four consecutive times will always land on heads is 1 in 16. Since the events are sequentially unrelated, take the probability of heads in 1 try, 0.5, and raise that to the power of 4... 1 in 24 = 1 in 16
The probability is 5/16.
If you have tossed a fair, balanced coin 100 times and it has landed on HEADS 100 consecutive times, the probability of tossing HEADS on the next toss is 50%.
3 out of 6
The empirical probability can only be determined by carrying out the experiment a very large number of times. Otherwise it would be the theoretical probability.

It is 1/2.
1/2 chance of getting heads or tails 5 times 1/10
It is 1/8 = 0.125
The probability that a coin flipped four consecutive times will always land on heads is 1 in 16. Since the events are sequentially unrelated, take the probability of heads in 1 try, 0.5, and raise that to the power of 4... 1 in 24 = 1 in 16
It is (1/2)3 = 1/8 or 0.125
