Detailed explanation-1: -Examples: When we flip a coin a very large number of times, we find that we get half heads, and half tails. We conclude that the probability to flip a head is 1/2, and the probability to flip a tail is 1/2.

Detailed explanation-2: -P(getting 2 heads when a coin is tossed twice)= 1/4.

Detailed explanation-3: -The probability of getting two heads on two coin tosses is 0.5 x 0.5 or 0.25. A visual representation of the toss of two coins. The Product Rule is evident from the visual representation of all possible outcomes of tossing two coins shown above.

Detailed explanation-4: -If you flip a coin twice, what is the probability of getting one or more heads? Since the probability of getting exactly one head is 0.50 and the probability of getting exactly two heads is 0.25, the probability of getting one or more heads is 0.50 + 0.25 = 0.75.

Detailed explanation-5: -Correct answer: Explanation: If you flip a coin, the chances of you getting heads is 1/2. This is true every time you flip the coin so if you flip it 3 times, the chances of you getting heads every time is 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2, or 1/8.
