The odds of flipping a quarter and getting heads three times in a row is a half the first and the other times as well. So each time the probability is halved, so the sender would be 1/8 or 12.5%

Answer:

The answer will be 12.5%

This is because you divided it by the number of possibilities (which in this case is 2) then divide by the number of times (which is 3).

100 divided by 2 x 6 = 12.5%
