“If three coins are tossed, what is the probability of getting two heads and one tail?”
You can calculate it, but for such a small number of possible combinations of independent events (8), let’s look at them all.
H = heads
T = tails
Possible events with equal probability (order matters):
HHH
HHT
HTH
HTT
THH
THT
TTH
TTT
Number with 2 heads: 3
Total number: 8
From the definition of probability, the number you are looking for is 3/8 = 0.375 = 37.5%
