How to use this tool
- Enter trials, successes, success probability.
- Select Calculate to view the result.
- Check the method and assumptions below before using the result.
The method, explained
P(X = k) = C(n,k) p^k (1 − p)^(n − k).
Using trials = 10, successes = 3, success probability = 0.5, the result is 0.1171875 probability. Change these example inputs to match your task; use the method above to check each step.
What to keep in mind
A descriptive or probability calculation under the stated assumptions. Check the sample design and model before interpreting results.
Common questions
Which inputs does this calculation need?
Find the probability of exactly k successes in independent trials. Enter trials, successes, success probability. The filled example is editable and is not a saved personal record.
How should I interpret the result?
A descriptive or probability calculation under the stated assumptions. Check the sample design and model before interpreting results.
