Question

PLEASE HELP!! A fair coin is flipped 3 times. What is the probability of the coin landing on heads 3 times? Why is that?

Answer 1

1/8 or 12.5%

Explanation:

The odds of getting heads is 50% (1/2) each time.

So putting the odds to the power of three will provide the odds of getting heads 3 times.

1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8 or 12.5%
