Say you take 5 pieces. What is the probability of obtaining:

    If the presentation of results shows that:
    HHHHH HHHHT HHHTH HHHTT
    HHTHH HHTHT HHTTH HHTTT
    HTHHH HTHHT HTHTH HTHTT
    HTTHH HTTHT HTTTH HTTTT
    Pffff THHHT THHTH THHTT
    THTHH THTHT THTTH THTTT
    TTHHH TTHHT TTHTH TTHTT
    DDThh TTTHT TTTTH TTTTT

    Thus, health outcomes differ as follows:
    3 heads:
    HHHTT HHTHT HHTTH HTHHT
    HTHTH HTTHH THHHT THHTH
    THTHH TTHHH

    4 heads:
    HHHHT HHHTH HHTHH pffff HTHHH

    5-chief: HHHHH

    1) 10/32
    2) (10 +5 +1) / 32 = 16/32 = 1 / 2

    I wonder how I could do with a formula.
    It seems a combination. Not sure.

    1) = 3 5, 3 / 5, is the 0.6
    2) = I would say for at least three of the five use of a sign above them. "3> 5
