Probability True or False?

I flick a coin 4 times. I get heads 3 times, and tails once. Therefore the probability of getting a heads is 75%.

I’ve spun an unbiased coin 3 times and got 3 heads. It is more likely to be tails than heads if I spin it again.

There are 3 red beads and 5 blue beads in a bag. I pick a bead at random. The probability that it is red is 3/5.

Tomorrow it will either rain or not rain, so the probability that it will rain is 0.5.

It is harder to throw a six than a three with a die.

It isn’t worth buying a national lottery card with numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6, on it as this is less likely to occur than other combinations.

Each spinner has two sections – one black and one white. The probability of getting black is 50% for each spinner.
