Probability of Getting Two Heads When Flipping Two Coins

When you flip two coins, the possible outcomes are:

• HH (two heads)
• HT (one head and one tail)
• TH (one head and one tail)
• TT (two tails)

Since each coin flip is independent, the probability of getting two heads is the product of the individual probabilities.

The probability of getting heads on the first flip is $\frac{1}{2}$ and the probability of getting heads on the second flip is also $\frac{1}{2}$. Therefore, the compound probability of getting two heads when flipping two coins is $\frac{1}{2} * \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{4}$.

So, the chance of getting two heads when flipping two coins is $\frac{1}{4}$, or 25%.
