P(all six tosses are heads) = (1/2)^6 = 1/64 = 0.15625
Where
1/2 is the probability of getting a head in 1 coin toss.
6 is number of times of the coin is tossed.

Coin tossing is funny science, because every time you toss a coin, it has a 50% chance of landing heads up. So even if you get 6 heads in a row its always 50%. Eventually over hundreds of toss the averages can be seen.

i) The danger of having 2 heads is two/6. ii) The danger of having 5 heads is 5/6 and back the prospect of having 6 heads is 6/6. So the prospect of having a minimum of 5 heads = 5/6 x 6/6 = 30/36 = 5/6
