1/2

Answer 3

where is your work

Answer 4

probability of getting heads is always 1/2, assuming we are flipping a single coin.

Answer 5

one flip does not affect the probabilility of the second flip, or the third flip, or any other flip

Answer 6

\[\frac{ C }{ 200 } So narrow \it down get \it alone.\]

Answer 7

now, if the question had asked, "what is the probability of getting 200 heads in a row" that question would be a bit different

Answer 8

\[\frac{ C }{ 200}=\frac{ 1 }{ 2}\]

Answer 9

\[\frac{ C }{ 200 } \]\[-\frac{ C }{ 100 }\] \[C=1\]

Answer 10

\[\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }\]
