Question

Three unbiased coins are tossed. What is the probability of getting at most two heads?

Options:
A .  \(\frac{3}{4}\)
B .  \(\frac{1}{4}\)
C .  \(\frac{3}{8}\)
D .  \(\frac{7}{8}\)
Answer: Option D

Here S = {TTT, TTH, THT, HTT, THH, HTH, HHT, HHH}


Let E = event of getting at most two heads.


Then E = {TTT, TTH, THT, HTT, THH, HTH, HHT}.


So, \(P(E) = \frac{n(E)}{n(S)}=\frac{7}{8}\)
