You have a 1/2 chance of it landing on tails, separately, each time.
(1/2)/10=.05
5/100
Divide both sides by 5.
1/20
You have a 1/20 chance that you will land on tails every time.
I hope this helps!

For a fair coin, the probability of tails is 1/2 or 0.5, so the probability of all tails in 10 tosess is (1/2)^10 = 1/1024 = 0.0009765625
