Question

If a coin is tossed 10 times then what is the probability of getting three heads?

A 5/128 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B 13/128 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C 15/128 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D 11/128 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

Total sample spaces = 2¹⁰ Total favourable events N(P) = ¹⁰C₃ Probability (E) = (N(P))/(N(S)) = (¹⁰C₃ )/(2¹⁰) = (¹⁰C₃ )/(2⁵. 2⁵) = ((10 × 12 )/(3 × 2))/(32 × 32) = (10 × 12)/(32 × 32) = 15/128
