Solution

Solution: 1 Mark each.

Number of times 0 heads or 1 head was obtained = 83 + 19 = 102
Probability of getting not more than one head = 102200 = 0.51
Number of times 2 heads or 3 heads was obtained = 76 + 22 = 98
Probability of getting at least 2 heads = 98200 = 0.49
Number of times 2 heads was obtained = 76
Probability of getting exactly 2 heads = 76200 = 0.38
