a magician designed an unfair coin so that the probability of getting a head on a flip is $60\%$. if he flips the coin three times, what is the probability that he flips more heads than tails? express your answer as a common fraction.

Sagot :

Probability of getting a head is 60%

More heads than tails means these possibilities are

2 Heads - 1 Tail

3 Heads - 0 Tails

Probability of 2 Heads and 1 Tail =   C (3,2) (.60) ^2 (.40)  

=3 * (.36) (.40)  

=3 * .144

=3 (144/1000)  

=3 (18/125)

=54/125

Probability of 3 Heads = (.60) ^3

= .6 (.36)

= .216 = 216 / 1000

= 27 / 125

Hence, total probability =   54 / 125 + 27 / 125

= 81 / 125
