The probability of a fair coin landing on heads or tails is always 1/2 for each individual toss, regardless of previous results. The outcomes of previous tosses do not affect the outcome of the next toss due to the independence of each flip.
Thus, for the 7th toss, the probability that the coin will land with tails up is:
**1/2 (1 half)**.
