When a coin is tossed once, there are two possible outcomes (Head and Tail), meaning there are two ways to reveal a different face on each throw.

The same two outcomes are produced when tossing the coin a second time, and a third toss also produces the same results.

As a result, according to the multiplication principle, the total number of outcomes is given by,

2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2=64

Therefore, the total number of possible outcomes is 64.
