Answer:

Explanation:

The probability that more than one coin lands heads when three coins are flipped can be calculated as follows:

There are a total of 2^3 = 8 possible outcomes for flipping three coins.

Outcomes where more than one coin lands heads:

HHT (2 heads)

HTH (2 heads)

THH (2 heads)

HTT (1 head)

THT (1 head)

TTH (1 head)

So, there are 6 favorable outcomes.

Therefore, the probability of getting more than one heads when three coins are flipped is 6/8 = 3/4 = 3/4.
