13, what is the probability that the coin lands on heads the first two times and lands on tales third

Answer: The probability is 1/8

Explanation:

Probability is a ratio of the number of relevant outcomes and total number of possible outcomes.

We are flipping the coin three times.

The number of relevant outcomes is 1 (one triple {Head, Head, Tail})

The number of all possible outcomes is the product of 2 possibilities (Head or Tail) on first toss, times another 2 on second, times another 2 on third, so 2^3 = 8.

The probability P = 1/8
