Total outcomes for 3 coin tosses = 2^3 = 8. The only outcome with 3 heads is (H, H, H). Probability = 1/8.
When three coins are tossed, the total number of possible outcomes is 2^3 = 8. Getting 3 heads corresponds to exactly one specific outcome (HHH). Using the classical definition of probability, the chance is 1/8.
