Final answer:
The probability of getting no tails in five coin tosses is (0.5)^5, which equals 0.03125 or 3.125%.
Step-by-step explanation:
The calculation of the probability of getting no tails when a coin is tossed 5 times can be done by considering the chance of getting heads in each toss. Since the probability of getting heads in one toss is 0.5, and each toss is independent, the probability of getting heads 5 times in a row is (0.5)^5. Using a calculator, raise 0.5 to the power of 5 to find this probability.
To calculate: (0.5)^5 = 0.5 × 0.5 × 0.5 × 0.5 × 0.5 = 0.03125. Therefore, the probability of tossing a coin five times and getting no tails (all heads) is 0.03125, or 3.125%.
