    When flipping a coin 3 times there are eight possible outcomes:

    H H H

    H H T

    H T H

    T H H

    H T T

    T H T

    T T H

    T T T

    In four of those instances you have at least 2 tails. Therefore, the chance is 50%.

    Flipping a coin is an independent event, meaning the probability of getting heads or tails does not depend on the previous flip. It's 1/2 or 0.5 chance every time.

    So three coin flips would be = (0.5) * (0.5) * (0.5)

    = 0.125

    * 100%

    = 12.5% chance
