How many outcome can be there if a coin cais tossed 6 times?

I am glad you figured it out - and sad that you did not like my comparison.
However, you do realize that if toss a two-sided coin 6 times - there are 2^6 outcomes (and 3 sided coins would have 3^6 outcomes ) and 6 sided dice would have 6^6 outcomes.
Understanding this similarity will help you later in solving similar problems.
