Phantom coins

Level pending

Snehal has 3 3 biased coins labeled as A , B A,B and C C . The probabilities that t a i l tail appears after they are flipped are given by P ( A ) = 1 2 P(A)=\frac{1}{2} , P ( B ) = 1 4 P(B)=\frac{1}{4} and P ( C ) = 1 8 P(C)=\frac{1}{8} respectively. If all the coins are flipped simultaneously, then the probability that exactly 2 2 heads are obtained is given by a b \frac{a}{b} where a a and b b are coprime positive integers. What is the value of a + b a+b ?


The answer is 95.
