Flip A Coin 100 Times

So you want to know how likely it is that you will get a certain outcome, be it heads or tails? Well, to help you make that decision, we’ve put together a little Flip-A-Coin calculator.  Just enter the number of somersaults you want to do and our calculator will tell you the probability of each outcome!

What you need to know about probability

1. Probability is the study of chance in events.  It tells us how likely something is to happen and how likely different outcomes are.

2. When you flip a coin, you are faced with two possible outcomes: heads and tails.  Both outcomes are equally likely because they both occur with the same frequency.

3. To determine what outcome will occur, all you have to do is toss the coin a few times and look at the outcome.  You can use this information to predict which outcome is more likely to occur in future events.

What is a coin toss?

A coin toss is simply a decision where you toss a coin to see which way it will spin.  You can use this decision-making technique in many different situations, from choosing a movie to choosing a restaurant.

If you ever flip a coin, you should expect to get heads and tails.  This is because heads and tails are equally likely.  Just toss a coin to decide!

How to play a coin toss

If you want to play a coin toss, you should first decide how many times you want to flip the coin.  For example, if you wanted to flip the coin twice, you would count out two silver coins and place them on the table.  Then you toss the coin and decide which side it lands on (heads or tails).

The probability of getting a certain result

The probability of getting a particular outcome is simply the number of times a particular event occurs.  In this case, the event is tossing a coin and getting heads or tails.

A coin toss is a 1/2 probability event.  This means it will happen half the time.  So if you toss a coin 100 times, you get 50 heads and 50 tails.

Conclusion

Now that you know how the probability of a particular outcome is calculated, you can use this information to make better decisions.  Knowing the odds allows you to choose activities with a higher or lower probability of success.
