This works out as 0.6 or 60%.Therefore the probability of a tail is 0.4 or 40% and the probability of two tails ishttps://community.betfair.com/general_betting/go/thread/view/94082/27346705/probability-question?post_id=490849449#4908494490.36 or 36% represents the probablility of a head squared so to work out the probability of a head calculate the square root of 0.36.
