The probability of obtaining three heads in a row when flipping a coin is 1/8 or 0.125.
Probability refers to the numerical descriptions that reflects the chance or likelihood that an event occurs. The probability of an event is always between 0 and 1, where 0 means impossibility of the event and 1 means certainty. Probability is calculated, in the simplest form, by dividing the chance of a specific outcome by the total number of outcomes.
When flipping a coin once, with two possible outcomes, the probability of getting a head is ½ or 0.5.
When coins are flipped in the row, the probability of getting three heads would be:
P=1/2*1/2*1/2=1/8 or 0.125.
Hence, the chances that three consecutive heads will be achieved in coin flips is 12.5%.
