  1. A coin is tossed 4 times. What is the probability of getting heads exactly 3 times?
    1. 1
      4
    2. 3
      8
    3. 1
      2
    4. 3
      4

Correct Option: A

Number of favourable cases are given by
H H H T
H H T H
H T H H
T H H H
Total number of cases = 2C1 × 2C1 × 2C1 × 2C1 = 16

∴ Probablity =
4
=
1
164
