Answer:

The probability is 1/4.

Explanation:

To find the probability of two events occurring, find the probability of each event and multiply the two probabilities:

The probability of 1 coin landing on tails is 1/2.

The probability of another coin landing on tails is 1/2.

Multiply the probabilities:

1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4
