Question

Oliver shot 8 free throws at practice, making 6 free throws and missing 2 free throws. If Oliver is equally likely to make a free throw as he is to miss a free throw, find the probability of this outcome by expanding (m+n)8.

Answer 1

Alfredjiang2010 is a very smart person and his answer is correct I think.

Answer 2

Answer: Then you turn the 6 to a 4 and the 2 into a 4 also. Because Oliver wanted the free throw and the free throw he missed turn both equal so you divide 8 with 2 and get 4.
