Question 1083244: A coin is flipped three times.
How many outcomes are possible?
Answer by redd62(2)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! flipping a coin gives either head or tail. here coin is flipped three times so samplespace is 2*2*2=8
{HHT, HTH, THH, HHH, TTT, TTH, THT, HTT}
favourable outcomes are {TTH, THT, HTT} i.e. 3
we can also find favourable outcome in another way. we have to get two tails and one head in any order. (TTH). so total no. of ways of getting = 3!/2!= 3
so prob is 3/8
