    If 5 coins are tossed together, what is the probability of getting at least two heads?

    A)  \[\frac{1}{32}\]

    B)  \[\frac{3}{16}\]

    C)  \[\frac{13}{16}\]

    D)  \[\frac{5}{8}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     P (at least 2 heads) = 1 - P (less than two heads)     = 1 - [P (no head) + P (one head)] \[=-1\left[ {{\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)}^{5}}+{{\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)}^{5}} \right]\] \[=1-(6){{\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)}^{5}}=\frac{13}{16}\]
