What is the probability of getting tails 4 times in a row when you flip a coin?
The probability of each coin flip, independently, is 0.5 or 50%. The probability of getting one result (either heads or tails) four times in a row is 0.5 to the fourth power or 0.0625, which equals 6.25%
What do you think are the odds of getting four tails in a row?
Assuming a fair coin, the odds of getting four tails in a row are 1 in 16.
When you flip two coins why does it appear tails and heads more than heads and heads and tails and tails?
Because you are thinking permutations rather than combinations. There are four permutations of two coins, but there are only three combinations, because it does not matter which coin is heads and which coin is tails. As a result, the combination of heads and tails has a 0.5 probability, while two heads or two tails each have a 0.25 probability.
What is the outcome if two coins are tossed and one number cube is rolled?
Let's call one coin A and the other B. omes The possible outcomes for the coins are; A heads and B tails, A tails and B heads, A and B heads, A and B tails. That's four outcomes. The possible outcomes for a single die (as in dice) are six since a die has six faces, So four times six is twenty four possible outcomes.
If a fair coin is tossed four times What is the probability that two heads and two tails will result?
Actually, although it may seem like it, it is not 50-50. The answer's more like 55-45 This is because the 'head' side is heavier than the 'tails' side. So it is more likely to be tails 3 heads 1
What is the probability of getting tails once and heads three times if you flip a coin four times?
25:75
What is the outcome probability of tossing a coin four times exactly 3 tails?
1/4
What is the probability of getting three tails and a head when a coin is tossed four times?
The probability is 1/4
When a quarter is tossed four times How many times are exactly three tails tossed?
Out of the 16 possible outcomes for a coin tossed four times, 4 of them result in 3 Tails & 1 Head. They are: TTTH, TTHT, THTT, and HTTT.
What are the chances of getting tails at least twice if you throw a coin four times?
.5 or 50% probability (if not counting draws)
What is the probability of getting tails 4 times in a row when you flip a coin?
The probability of each coin flip, independently, is 0.5 or 50%. The probability of getting one result (either heads or tails) four times in a row is 0.5 to the fourth power or 0.0625, which equals 6.25%
What do you think are the odds of getting four tails in a row?
Assuming a fair coin, the odds of getting four tails in a row are 1 in 16.
What is the probability of tossing tails on a coin four times in a row?
The probability of Tails on the first toss is 0.5 .The probability of Tails on the second toss is 0.5 .The probability of Tails on the third toss is 0.5 .The probability of Tails on the fourth toss is 0.5 .The probability of all four is (0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5) = 0.0625 = 6.25%
What is the probability that a coin will land on tails 75 percent of the time if flip four times?
For 4 coin tosses, there are 16 possible outcomes. Tails on 75% of 4 tosses is 3 times tails, and 1 time heads. This occurs in 4 of those 16 possibilities, so the probability is 4/16 = 1/4 (or 25%). But if the question is 'what is the probability that it's tails at least 75% of the time, then you have to add in the 1 where all 4 are tails, then you have 5/16 (or 31.25%).
How many possible outcomes for flipping 2 coins?
Assuming the coins are fair, two-sided coins, and landing on their sides is not an option, there are four possible outcomes if you consider coin a having a head and coin b having a tail being a different instance from coin a being a tail and coin be having a head. Here they are; Coin A | Coin B Heads | Tails Heads | Heads Tails....| Heads Tails....| Tails
What is the probability of tossing four coins and getting tails on all four?
Assuming it is a fair coin, the probability is 1/24 = 1/16.
If you flip a coin 4 times what is the probability that you will get 4 tails?
1/16There is a one-half probability that any flip will be a tail. The probability that all four are tails is (1/2)*(1/2)*(1/2)*(1/2)=1/16, or 6.25%
