The term "heads of state" is used because "head" is a singular noun that describes the role or position, while "state" is also singular, referring to the governing body. In English, when referring to a collective group of individuals occupying the same role, the phrase maintains the singular form for both nouns. Thus, "heads of state" correctly indicates multiple leaders of different states. Using "heads of states" would imply multiple heads for each individual state, which is not the intended meaning.

If a coin is tossed 3 times what is the probability of getting 2 and only 2 heads?
This is a problem concerning binomial probability distribution. If you have three coins, each one can land heads or tails. (We will ignore the remote chance that a coin will land on its edge.) Each coin has an equal probability of landing heads or tails. In other words, each coin has two possible states. Since there are three coins, there are 2 x 3 = 6 possible states. We can easily see what they are with a table: HHH HHT HTH HTT THH THT TTH TTT Three of those possible eight states contain two and only two heads. So the probability of throwing any of those three states is three in eight, or 3/8 = 0.375.
Why is there 62 state senaters?
The number of state senators varies by state, and in some states, like Nebraska, there are 49 senators. In total, there are 50 states in the U.S., each with its own legislative structure. The variation in the number of state senators is determined by state constitutions and legislative needs. States typically have a bicameral legislature, except for Nebraska, which has a unicameral system.

What is the difference between head of states and heads of states?
First, the "head of state" is another name for the president of a country or the prime minister (some countries have a president, some have a prime minister). Barack Obama is America's head of state; David Cameron is currently the head of state in England. "Heads of state" ('state' is always singular, since it is an idiom. and the word 'state' means a country or nation in this expression) refer to more than one president or prime minister. You cannot make the expression plural-- if you do, you change the meaning. "Heads of states" (actually, "heads of the states") could refer to governors of individual states in the United States, but this is not how we would say it-- we would refer to the "leader" or the "chief executive" of a state, or say "who is the governor of your state?" In the USA, there are 50 states, and each one has a governor. But there is only one president of the United States.
