Question 488990: If I drop three coins on a table, what is the probability of finding
1. exactly 2 heads
2. at most 1 head
3. at least 2 heads
4. at least 1 head
sample space = 8
I came up with HHT, HTH, THH,HTT,THT,TTH,TTT,HHH.
state the probability of each in the form of fraction and percent.
For 1,2,3 I came up with 1/4 or .25, and for 4 = 1/6.
Have I done this correctly, or can you show me a better way to show this??
Is this a form of "classical probability"??
Thank you.
