Problema Solution
Suppose you toss a fair coin and get 6 straight heads. What is the probability that on the next 6 flips, you will get 6 straight tails.
Answer provided by our tutors
We are relying on the assumption that each coin flip is independent.
When coin flips are independent, it means that the probability of a coin coming up heads does not depend in any way on previous coin flips.
Thus the probability of getting 6 straight heads in the next 6 flips is 1/2^6 = 0.015625.
