If you flip a coin twice, what is the probability that you flip tails both times?

1/4

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we are tossing two coins and we want to find the probability of tossing a tails and a tails. Tossing two coins are independent events because the outcome of tossing one coin does not affect the outcome of tossing the other coin.

We can find the probability of independent events by multiplying the probability of the first event by the probability of the second event. Note that we are talking about the theoretical probability because we aren't going to actually toss the coins.

If we want to find the probability of tossing a tails and a tails, we multiply the probability of tossing a tails by the probability of tossing a tails.

Now, let's find the probability of tossing a tails on the first coin. Remember that a coin has two sides which are heads and tails. Tails is one of these sides so the probability of tossing a heads is 1 out of 2 or 1/2. On the second coin the same is true so the probability is 1 out of 2 or 1/2.

Finally, we can simply multiply 1/2 by 1/2 which gives us 1/4. Therefore, the probability of tossing tails and tails is 1/4.
