The outcome of each coin toss is independent of the previous tosses. This means that regardless of how many heads or tails Raheem has previously tossed, the probability of the coin landing on heads in the 21st toss remains the same as it was for the first toss.
For a fair coin, the probability of landing on heads is:
\[
P(\text{Heads}) = \frac{1}{2}
\]
Therefore, if Raheem tosses the coin a 21st time, the probability that it will land on heads is \( \frac{1}{2} \) or 50%.
