For example if you wanted to know the probability of 6 coins being flipped and the probability that 5 of the flipped coins will land on heads by expanding. First, expand (h + t) 6 using which ever method you would prefer. Each coefficient represents the number of different ways you can flip a the 6 coins that way. (e.g. 15h 4 t suggests there are 15 different ways the 6 coins could land with 4 heads up and tails up) a. Determine the probability of having 5 coins land heads up. b. Determine the probability of having or more tails landing heads up. M. Winking Unit - page 1
