The ratio of successful events A = 4 to the total number of possible combinations of a sample space S = 8 is the probability of 2 heads in 3 coin tosses. Users may refer the below solved example work with steps to learn how to find what is the probability of getting at-least 2 heads, if a coin is tossed three times or 3 coins tossed together. Users may refer this tree diagram to learn how to find all the possible combinations of sample space for flipping a coin one, two, three or four times.
Solution
Step by step workout
step 1 Find the total possible events of sample space S
S = {HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT}
S = 8
step 2 Find the expected or successful events A
A = {HHH, HHT, HTH, THH}
A = 4
step 3 Find the probability
P(A) =
Successful Events/Total Events of Sample Space
= 4/8
= 0.5
P(A) = 0.5
0.5 is the probability of getting 2 Heads in 3 tosses.
