I'm wondering if flipping a coin really does have a 50% chance of landing on heads and a 50% chance of landing on tails. Is the probability of a coin flip really 50-50?

Real-life factors, such as the coin's material, weight distribution, and the force of the toss, can influence the results.

Additionally, environmental variables like wind resistance and the surface upon which the coin lands can play a role.

The theoretical probability of any fair and unbiased coin toss suggests an equal likelihood of landing on heads or tails.

These real-world influences mean that the actual probability of a coin flip may not be precisely 50-51.

In an ideal scenario, each outcome of a coin toss should have a 50% chance of being either heads or tails.
