Anita tosses 3 coins. What is the probability that all the coins will land tails up?

Probability that one coin will land tail up is 0,5. If you toss 3 coins the probability that all the coins will land tails up is: 0 , 5 3 = 0 , 5 ∗ 0 , 5 ∗ 0 , 5 = 0 , 125. .

A trick to get the total outcomes is multiplying the number of possibilities by how many trials. So in this case you multiply 2 x 2 x 2 because the only possible possibilities are tails or heads. And the probability of getting all tails is 1 so therefore the answer is 1/8

The probability that all three coins tossed by Anita will land tails up is 0.125, which is equivalent to 12.5%. This is calculated by multiplying the individual probabilities of each coin landing tails. Each coin has a probability of 0.5 for landing tails, so the total becomes 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 = 0.125.
