Answer:

25%

Explanation:

If you flip a coin twice, sometimes you get tails twice in a row. That is because each time you flip the coin, the odds remain 1/2; the two flips are independent of each other. The odds of getting tails twice in a row are 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4. So 25% of the time you'll get heads twice in a row
