- We have seen that when we flip a fair coin 2 times wehave 4=22 possible outcomes (HH, TT, HT, TH)and when we flip it 3 times we have 8=23 possibleoutcomes. This formula holds in general so if we flip a coin 4times we have 16=24 possible outcomes. Now suppose theinstructor of a class of 100 does an experiment of flipping a faircoin 5 times and before flipping the coin asks each of the studentsto write down what they expect the the flips to be in order (forexample, HTHTT). Do you think any student will get it correct? Ifso, how many would
