How to Find a Binomial Probability Calculator?
Binomial probability is defined as the probability of getting exactly a specific number of successes in a specific number of trials. To find out the binomial probability we use the following formula:
b(r; n, P) = nCr × Pr × (1 – P)n – r
Here b is the binomial probability, n is the number of trials, r is the number of success, and P is the probability of success of a single trial.
Solved Example:
A coin is tossed 7 times. What is the probability of getting exactly 4 heads in these 7 tosses?
Solution:
Given: Number of trials = 7 and Number of success = 4
Probability of getting heads in a single coin toss = 0.5
Now, probability of getting 4 heads in 7 tosses = b(r; n, P) = nCr × Pr × (1 – P)n – r
b(4; 7, 0.5) = 7C4 × (0.5)4 × (1 – 0.5)7 - 4
b(4; 7, 0.5) = 35 × 0.0625 × (0.5)3
b(4; 7, 0.5) = 2.1875 × 0.125
b(4; 7, 0.5) = 0.2734
Therefore, the probability of getting exactly 4 heads in these 7 tosses is 0.2734
