We will use Binomial Distribution in this case.

Since the coin is tossed 15 times. N which is the number of trails will be 15.

P = Probability of heads

Q = Probability of tails

X = No. heads occurring in each toss.

So, now we have to find the probability for exactly 10 heads.

P(x = 10) = C(15, 10) P^x Q^N-x

C(15, 10) (1/2)^10 (1/2)^5 = 0.0916
