A man claims to have extrasensory perception (ESP). As a test, a fair coin is flipped10 times and the man is asked to predict the outcome in advance. He gets 7 out of10 correct. What is the probability that he would have done at least this well if hehad no ESP?

Answer:

I would say 70%

Explanation:

He got 7 of of 10 (7/10 = 70%) right so I would say he would do just as well without ESP since it doesn't exist.
