QuestionA person tosses a coin 14 times. In how many ways can he get 6 tails?

Studdy Solution
Perform the arithmetic to calculate the simplified result: (146)=14×13×12×11×10×9720 \binom{14}{6} = \frac{14 \times 13 \times 12 \times 11 \times 10 \times 9}{720} =2162160720 = \frac{2162160}{720} =3003 = 3003
Therefore, the number of ways to get 6 tails in 14 tosses is:
3003 \boxed{3003}
