Possibilities on the first toss = 2. For each of these . . .
Possibilities on the second toss = 2. Fo reach of these . . .
Possibilities on the third toss = 2.
Total possible sequances in 3 tosses = 2 x 2 x 2 = 8.
Number of ways to get heads exactly twice = 3 .
H - H - T
H - T - H
T - H - H
Probability of exactly 2 heads in 3 tosses = 3/8 = 37.5% .
Odds = 3 in 8, or 5 to 3 against it.
