50/50 Chance
The percentage chance of getting heads or tails above is 50 percent. In real life it is not actually 50/50 because there is a very small percentage chance that the
coin will land on its edge. In our virtual coin flip, there is no chance of it landing on its edge and it is truly a 50/50 chance.
Multiple Flips Chances
As explained above, the chance of getting any side on one flip is 50 percent. However, what are the chances of the same side coming
up twice in a row or three times and so on? The formula to calculate this is (.50)^n where n is the number of flips in a row.
Plugging in numbers for n, we get the following:
1 time same side = 50%
2 times same side = 25%
3 times same side = 12.5%
4 times same side = 6.25%
5 times same side = 3.125%
