4 pair coins are flipped, what is the probability you will have at least 2 tails?

Answer 1

Honestly, and despite all of the odds that are possible, and all of the papers written about it, the possibility of it is 50/50, just as everything in life is. People like to overcomplicate everything to ensure that they have a function in life, hopefully a paid one too, and that is why there are so many differing opinions on something like this. What is the chance that the lottery ticket that you just bought is a winner? 50/50, because it is, or it is not! It does not depend on the amount of tickets produced or the amount of purchasers, it all depends whether it is a winner or not. Good luck selling this to some people though. E.

Answer 2

If 4 pair of coins i.e. 8 coins are flipped, the possible combinations are :---

1) HHHHHHHH (all 8 heads)
2) HHHHHHHT (7 heads, 1 tail)
3) HHHHHHTT (6 heads, 2 tails)
4) HHHHHTTT (5 heads, 3 tails)
5) HHHHTTTT (4 heads, 4 tails)
6) HHHTTTTT (3 heads, 5 tails)
7) HHTTTTTT (2 heads, 6 tails)
8) HTTTTTTT (1 head, 7 tails)
9) TTTTTTTT (all 8 tails)

Out of the above 9 possible combinations, except the first two combinations, at least 2 tails are possible in the balance 7

Hence this probability will be 7 out of 9 which can be expressed as:--

The probability is 7/9
or
there is 77.77% probability of getting at least 2 tails if 4 pair of coins are flipped.

Answer 4

If by 4 pair you mean 8 coins, the odds are 4 out of 8. It's always half, no matter how many coins.

Answer 5

Depends on what your question means. If four pairs are flipped, what are the chances at least one pair has two tails? 25%. Or, if four pairs are flipped, what are the chances for at least two tails among the pairs? 50%.

There are four equal ways two coins flip: HH, HT, TH, TT. If you flip four pairs, TT has a 1/4 (25%) chance of being one of those pairs.

Answer 6

0,because I donot have any tails since I am an intelligent humanbeing!!
