Outcomes when a coin is flipped = heads, tails

So, total number of outcomes = 2

 

Probability of getting head once = ½

 

Probability of getting 12 heads in a row = ½*½*½½*½*½½*½*½½*½*½

                                                                      = 1 /4096

 

Therefore, probability of landing heads 12 times in a row is 1 /4096
