Coin Flipping Problem
Imagine a school assembly with 250 students. Everyone stands
up and flips a coin. People with tails sit down. People with heads
flip again.
Do you think anyone will get 6 heads in a row?
How many heads in a row do you expect the last one standing to
have flipped?
Can you explain your reasoning?
