(ot) car length poll



easy answer, since the odds of a coin flip are 50% heads or tails, there fore the possibility of 3 coins landing on either side remains 50%,
now the odds that all 3 coins land on one common side (heads or tails) beleive it or not remains 50% (quantity of coins does not change the odds)
