Simpler Probability Puzzle
You toss a coin three times. You toss it fairly — on each toss you have a 50% probability of getting Heads or Tails.
Bearing in mind the previous puzzle, are you more likely to get THH or THT? Vote! Whoops — I forgot to set a time limit on the poll! I'll post the answer in a couple of days. Last edited by pdurrant; 08-03-2010 at 04:31 AM. |
