you are looking for the probability of getting one tail, two,......., and six
this equivalent to saying 1 - the probability of not getting any tails (or getting 6 heads = (1/2)^6).
P(X>=1) = 1 - (1/2)^6=

What is the probability of obtaining at least one head when a coin is flipped four times?
The probability of obtaining 4 tails when a coin is flipped 4 times is: P(4T) = (1/2)4 = 1/16 = 0.0625 Then, the probability of obtaining at least 1 head when a coin is flipped 4 times is: P(at least 1 head) = 1 - 1/16 = 15/16 = 0.9375
What is the probability of flipping a coin 7 times?
The probability is 1. I have flipped a coin a lot more than 7 times.
A coin is biased so that the probability a head comes up when it is flipped is 0.6 What is the expected number of heads that comes up when its flipped 10 times?
Multiply the probability by the number of times the experiment was carried out. 0.6x10=6
What is the probability that a coin flipped four consecutive times will always land on heads?
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
What is the probability of winning a game of spoons?
the probability of winning that is the number you get over the total number of times you play the round!!!!!!!!!!!!for example: if i flipped the spoon two times, and you were supposed to flip 18 times, then the probability of winning is 2/18, which reduces to 1/9.

What is the probability of a coin landing on heads twice when it is flipped 2 times?

What is the probability of getting 3 HH if 2 coins are flipped 10 times?
It is 0.2503, approx.
If a coin is flipped twice what is the probability that both will be heads?
The sample space is HH, HT, TH, HH. Since the HH combination can occur once out of four times, the probability that if a coin is flipped twice the probability that both will be heads is 1/4 or 0.25.
What is the probability of tossing a coin 6 times and obtaining at least 3 consecutive heads?
The probability is 5/16.
What is the probability of getting heads at least once if a fair coin is flipped three times?
7/8

A fair coin is flipped three times what is the probability that the coin lands heads each time?
7/8
What is the empirical probability of tossing a coin 5 times and obtaining at least 3 consecutive heads?
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.
