When flipping a coin, there are 2 possible outcomes: heads or tails. If you flip 12 coins, each coin flip is independent of the others. Therefore, the total number of possible outcomes is calculated by raising the number of outcomes per coin (2) to the power of the number of coins (12).
The formula is:
2
12
2
12
Calculating this:
2

=
4096
