This math topic focuses on understanding the basic probabilities of obtaining specific outcomes when flipping three coins, specifically the likelihood of all coins showing either heads or tails. The topic is framed within the broader context of probability and counting—multiple events at an introductory level. The problems require the expression of these probabilities as fractions, enhancing the ability to calculate and manipulate fractional probabilities in real-world contexts, like flipping coins multiple times.
