This is the binomial distribution (p+q)^10 with p =1/2, q = 1/2.
You can have 10 heads, probability of this is p^10 or 1/1024
9 heads 1 tail has pr = 10.p.q^9 = 10/1024
8 heads 2 tails has pr = 10C2.p^2.q^8 = 45/1024
7 heads 3 tails has pr = 10C3.p^7.q^3 = 120/1024
So in 100 trials of this you would expect 7 heads & 3 tails to occur 100 x 120/1024 times
or about 11.7 times. Nearly 12 times.
