 A coin is tossed twice, then find the
probability that head is obtained at least
once.
Answer 3/4
You flip a coin 3 times. Find the
following probabilities.
P(2 Heads) = 3/8
P(1 Tail) = 3/8
P(3 Tails) = 1/8
P(no tails) = 1/8
P (no Heads) = 1/8
 Three coin are tossed simultaneously.
Then the probability that exactly two tails
appear is?
Answer: 3/8
Throw a coin 5 times what is the probability
of getting 3 tails and 2 Heads.
You flip a coin 4 times. Find the following

P( at least 3 Heads)= 5/16
P(at most 2 tails ) =10/16
P (no tails )= 1/16
P (more than 3 tails )= 1/16
P (at least 1 Head) =15/16
