    A binomial distribution can only be used when there are 2 possible outcomes, no more, no less.

    Looking at the situations given you are able to use a binomial distribution in 2 cases.

    First is the quarter being flipped 3 times. There are only two possibilities (Heads or Tails).

    Second is the 3 marbles being pulled out of the bag. There are only two types of marbles (Green and Blue).

    In many cases, it is appropriate to summarize a group of independent observations by the number of observations in the group that represent one of two outcomes, this means that there are two probably outcome for a problem or situation. Below are the answer to the above question:

    1. A quarter is flipped 3 times to see how many times tails comes up on the coin.

    2. Three marbles are pulled from a bag of 10 green and 10 blue marbles without replacing to see how many times a green marble is pulled.
