    The second one was a probability ques. If you flip four quarters and get $1 for each head, what is the expected value? I said $2 because the flips are independent, easy enough. Then he asked, now assume after you flip the four quarters you can flip one of them again(if it was tails), now what is the expected value? I said, $2.50 figuring in another 50cents for the extra flip. He says no, gives the hint that would you flip again in every outcome...oooh I got his hint but got flustered and couldn't figure it out. Looking back in retrospect now, its quite easy though I'm not sure it's right because he said it would have to be less than $2.50. Now, you take the four states, 4H, 3H, 2H, 1H. 4H gives you $4 x 1/4 . 3H gives you $3 x 1/4 + 50cents for the extra flip. And so on till you get 11.50/4 or…
