How to Play
- 1Review the carnival challenge (e.g., "What are the chances of getting exactly two Tails when flipping three coins?").
- 2Look at the blank probability tree map provided.
- 3Place your wager using your carnival tickets on the outcome you think is mathematically best.
- 4Hit the "Simulate 100 Flips" button and watch the data pour in to see if you win!
Expert Strategy
“When flipping multiple coins, write out all possible combinations (like HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT). Count them up! This is your "sample space," and predicting based on it will guarantee long-term wins over guessing randomly.”

Understanding Independent Events
One of the hardest psychological hurdles in probability is the Gambler's Fallacy: the belief that if you flip five Heads in a row, you are "due" for a Tails. Coin Flip Carnival visually proves that each coin flip is an independent event, unaffected by the past.
By simulating hundreds of flips in seconds, players see the Law of Large Numbers physically map out in real time.
Visualizing Probability Trees
Calculating compound probabilities (like getting three heads in a row) is difficult to grasp abstractly. A probability tree visually branches out every possible scenario.
This game asks players to essentially trace their fingers along these branches, turning complex abstract math into an intuitive visual map.
