A Correct answer
Explanation

When tossing three coins, there are 2^3 = 8 possible outcomes. The only outcome with no heads is (T, T, T), which occurs once. Thus, the probability is 1/8.

The total number of possible outcomes when tossing three coins is 2^3 = 8. Getting no heads means getting all tails, which corresponds to exactly one specific outcome (TTT). By the classical definition of probability, the chance is 1/8.
