Okay, so I need to figure out how to solve this problem about a coin. Let me read it again carefully. The user mentioned "Acoin" but didn't provide the full problem. Hmm, maybe they started typing and didn't finish. Let me check again. Oh, wait, maybe there was a formatting issue. Let me think. If the problem is about a coin, it could be a probability question, like flipping a coin, or maybe a value question, like calculating the amount in coins. Since the user just wrote "Acoin," maybe they meant to ask something else but it got cut off.
Alternatively, maybe "Acoin" is a specific type of problem they're referring to. Let me try to recall common coin problems. There's the classic probability problems, like the chance of getting heads in a row, or the probability of a certain outcome in multiple flips. There's also problems involving fair vs unfair coins, or maybe problems with coins of different denominations.
Wait, maybe the user intended to ask something like: "A coin is flipped 3 times. What is the probability of getting exactly two heads?" But since the original message is incomplete, I need to make an assumption here. Alternatively, it could be a question about the value of coins, like "If you have 5 quarters and 3 dimes, how much money do you have?"
Since the user hasn't provided the full problem, I should probably ask for clarification. But since this is an exercise where I need to demonstrate problem-solving, maybe I can pick a common coin problem and solve it step by step. Let's go with a probability question. Let's assume the problem is: "A fair coin is flipped 5 times. What is the probability of getting exactly 3 heads?"
Alright, let's tackle this. First, I need to remember the formula for the probability of getting exactly k successes (in this case, heads) in n trials (flips). That's the binomial probability formula: P = C(n, k) * p^k * (1-p)^(n-k). Since it's a fair coin, p = 0.5 for heads.
So for n=5, k=3, p=0.5, the probability would be C(5,3) * (0.5)^3 * (0.5)^(5-3). Let's compute that.
First, C(5,3) is the combination of 5 things taken 3 at a time. The formula for combinations is n! / (k!(n-k)!). So 5! / (3!2!) = (120)/(6*2) = 120/12 = 10.
Then, (0.5)^3 = 1/8, and (0.5)^2 = 1/4. Multiplying those together: 1/8 * 1/4 = 1/32.
So the total probability is 10 * 1/32 = 10/32. Simplifying that, divide numerator and denominator by 2: 5/16.
Therefore, the probability is 5/16. Let me check if that makes sense. When flipping a coin 5 times, the number of possible outcomes is 2^5 = 32. The number of favorable outcomes is C(5,3) = 10. So 10/32 = 5/16. Yes, that seems correct.

Alternatively, if the problem was different, say, about the value of coins, let's consider another scenario. Suppose the problem is: "You have 10 coins, all quarters, and you spend $5. How many coins do you have left?"
In that case, each quarter is 0.25. 5 divided by 0.25 per quarter is 20 quarters. So if you started with 10 and spent 20, but wait, you can't spend more than you have. Hmm, maybe the problem is different. Let's adjust. Suppose you have 10 coins consisting of nickels and dimes, totaling 1. How many of each do you have?
That's a system of equations problem. Let n be nickels, d be dimes. n + d = 10, and 5n + 10d = 100 cents. Solving: from the first equation, n = 10 - d. Substitute into the second: 5(10 - d) + 10d = 100 => 50 -5d +10d =100 => 50 +5d=100 =>5d=50 =>d=10. Then n=0. So all dimes. But that's a possible answer.
But since the user only wrote "Acoin," maybe the intended problem was different. Another common problem is the two-child problem: "A family has two children. At least one is a boy. What is the probability both are boys?" The answer is 1/3, but that's more about conditional probability.
Alternatively, maybe it's a question about the expected number of flips to get a certain outcome. For example, expected number of flips to get two heads in a row. That's a more complex probability problem.
But given the ambiguity, I think the safest assumption is the binomial probability question. Let's stick with that. So the answer would be 5/16. But I need to make sure I didn't make any mistakes. Let me verify again.
Number of ways to choose 3 heads out of 5 flips: 10. Each outcome has probability (1/2)^5 = 1/32. So total probability 10*(1/32)=10/32=5/16. Yes, that's correct.
Alternatively, if the problem was about a coin with a certain probability of heads, say p=0.6, then the calculation would be different, but since it wasn't specified, assuming fair coin is standard.
Another possible problem: "You have a coin that lands heads 60% of the time. What's the probability of getting at least one head in three flips?" Then the answer would be 1 - (0.4)^3 = 1 - 0.064 = 0.936. But again, without the full problem, it's hard to tell.
Given the lack of specific information, I'll proceed with the first assumption and present the solution accordingly.
To solve the problem of finding the probability of getting exactly 3 heads in 5 flips of a fair coin, we use the binomial probability formula:
[
P = \binom{n}{k} \cdot p^k \cdot (1-p)^{n-k}
]
Given:
( n = 5 ) (total flips),
( k = 3 ) (desired heads),
( p = 0.5 ) (probability of heads for a fair coin).
Steps:
Calculate combinations ((\binom{5}{3})):
[
\binom{5}{3} = \frac{5!}{3!(5-3)!} = \frac{120}{6 \cdot 2} = 10
]
Compute probabilities for heads and tails:
[
(0.5)^3 = \frac{1}{8}, \quad (0.5)^2 = \frac{1}{4}
]
Multiply all components:
[
P = 10 \cdot \frac{1}{8} \cdot \frac{1}{4} = \frac{10}{32} = \frac{5}{16}
]
Answer: The probability is (\boxed{\dfrac{5}{16}}).
