(b) To have no winner within the first 6 tosses means that there must be 3 tails and 3 heads tossed. So we count how many ways can that happen. The number of ways to choose 3 heads (or tails, doesn't matter) from 6 tosses is
so 20 ways winthin the 6 tosses. but the question was "how many ways among the 128 of 7 tosses" so we need to add the 7th toss by multiplying by another 2 possibilities for the outcome of the 7th toss, giving us the answer: among the 128 there are 40 games that are tied and need the 7th toss.
(c) The probability is the number of tied games (after 6 tosses) divided by the total number of possible configurations among 6 tosses:

Step-by-step explanation:
the figure I've circled is similar to yhe figure shown because when we compare the measurements of the length and breadth of both rectangles, we can see that both the rectangles have the see me measurements, 3ft and 7ft. The only difference however, is that the figures have been rotated differently, the figure shown is kept vertically, on the other hand, the figure I've circled is rotated horizontally.
hope that helps...
