How to use this tool

  1. Enter trials, successes, success probability.
  2. Select Calculate to view the result.
  3. 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).

A WORKED EXAMPLE

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.
