Calculate each coin toss sequence probability:
Calculate the probability of the following coin flip
HTT
Coin Toss Probability Formula
Probability of each coin toss is 1/2, so we have:
P(HTT) = | 1 x 1 x 1 |
| 2 x 2 x 2 |
P(HTT) = 0.125
Calculate the probability of the following coin flip
THT
Coin Toss Probability Formula
Probability of each coin toss is 1/2, so we have:
P(THT) = | 1 x 1 x 1 |
| 2 x 2 x 2 |
P(THT) = 0.125
Calculate the probability of the following coin flip
TTH
Coin Toss Probability Formula
Probability of each coin toss is 1/2, so we have:
P(TTH) = | 1 x 1 x 1 |
| 2 x 2 x 2 |
P(TTH) = 0.125
Calculate final probability:
P(HTT + THT + TTH) = | 1 + 1 + 1 |
| 8 |
Final Answers
P(HTT + THT + TTH) = 0.375
What is the Answer?
P(HTT + THT + TTH) = 0.375

What 2 formulas are used for the Coin Toss Probability Calculator?
What 4 concepts are covered in the Coin Toss Probability Calculator?
- coin
- A unit of currency
- coin toss probability
- monte carlo simulation
- a model used to predict the probability of a variety of outcomes when the potential for random variables is present.
- probability
- the likelihood of an event happening. This value is always between 0 and 1.
P(Event Happening) = Number of Ways the Even Can Happen / Total Number of Outcomes
