Flip the coin three times and record your results. While we know the theoretical probability of flipping a heads, what is the experimental probability of flipping a heads?

The probability of getting heads while flipping a coin for three times is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

When a coin is flipped then there are two possible outcomes.

We can either get a heads or a tail.

If a coin is flipped three times and the possibility of getting heads would be 3

Total number of outcomes would be 6 ( 2 possible outcomes X 3 times toss)

Therefore, probability of getting heads would be = 3/6

= 1/2

Therefore, the probability of getting heads while flipping a coin for three times is 1/2
