Calculate each coin toss sequence probability:

Calculate the probability of the following coin flip

HHHHT

Coin Toss Probability Formula

Probability of each coin toss is 1/2, so we have:

P(HHHHT)  =  1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1
  2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2

P(HHHHT)  =  1
  32

P(HHHHT) = 0.03125

Calculate the probability of the following coin flip

HHHTH

Coin Toss Probability Formula

Probability of each coin toss is 1/2, so we have:

P(HHHTH)  =  1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1
  2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2

P(HHHTH)  =  1
  32

P(HHHTH) = 0.03125

Calculate the probability of the following coin flip

HHTHH

Coin Toss Probability Formula

Probability of each coin toss is 1/2, so we have:

P(HHTHH)  =  1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1
  2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2

P(HHTHH)  =  1
  32

P(HHTHH) = 0.03125

Calculate the probability of the following coin flip

HTHHH

Coin Toss Probability Formula

Probability of each coin toss is 1/2, so we have:

P(HTHHH)  =  1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1
  2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2

P(HTHHH)  =  1
  32

P(HTHHH) = 0.03125

Calculate the probability of the following coin flip

THHHH

Coin Toss Probability Formula

Probability of each coin toss is 1/2, so we have:

P(THHHH)  =  1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1
  2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2

P(THHHH)  =  1
  32

P(THHHH) = 0.03125


Calculate final probability:

P(HHHHT + HHHTH + HHTHH + HTHHH + THHHH)  =  1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1
  32

P(HHHHT + HHHTH + HHTHH + HTHHH + THHHH)  =  5
  32
