1. Jennifer flipped a coin three times and got heads each time. What is the probability that she gets heads on the next flip?
- A. 1/2
- B. 1/2
- C. 1/2
- D. 1/2
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
The probability of getting heads on a fair coin flip is 1/2. Each coin flip is independent of the previous ones, so the fact that Jennifer got heads three times in a row does not affect the probability of getting heads on the next flip. Therefore, the probability of getting heads on the next flip is still 1/2.
