Answer:


(1)/(8).

Explanation:

To solve this, we will first need to think about the probability of getting "tails". A coin has two sides, meaning landing on "tails" would result in a probability of
(1)/(2) per toss.

In the question, a total of 3 tosses is given. This means we will need to multiply the probability 3 times:


(1)/(2) ×
(1)/(2) ×
(1)/(2) =
(1)/(8) .
