The probability of successes in trials where the probability of success on any given trial is is given by:
The probability of at most successes in trials where the probability of success on any given trial is is given by:
The probability of at least successes in trials where the probability of success on any given trial is is given by:
The probability of more than successes in trials where the probability of success on any given trial is is given by:
Make adjustments to the summation indices depending on exactly what you are looking for. Also note the following relationship that may save you some arithmetic:
