Binomial Probability Formula
A probability formula for Bernoulli trials. The probability of achieving exactly k successes in n trials is shown below.
n = number of trials
k = number of successes
n – k = number of failures
p = probability of success in one trial
q = 1 – p = probability of failure in one
trial
You are taking a 10 question multiple choice test. If each question has four choices and you guess on each question, what is the probability of getting exactly 7 questions correct?
n = 10
k = 7
n – k = 3
p = 0.25 = probability of guessing the correct answer on
a question
q = 0.75 = probability of guessing the wrong answer on
a question
