Jake has been flipping a coin for 3 hours straight and he is about to flip it for the 500th time. What is the theoretical probability that Jake gets heads on this last flip? * 1 point 1 out of 2 (50%) because no matter how many times a coin is flipped, each flip has just two possible outcomes, heads or tails. 2 out of 500 (0.4%) because there are two possible outcomes, heads or tails in 500 flips. 2 out of 1 (200%) because there are two possible outcomes, heads or tails and one flip. 3 out of 500 (0.6%) because it has taken 3 hours to flip 500 times.
