The sample space is S={hh,ht,th,tt}.S=\{hh, ht, th, tt\}.

As this has 4 elements there are 24=162^4=16 subsets, namely


,{hh},{ht},{th},{tt},{hh,ht},{hh,th},\empty, \{hh\}, \{ht\}, \{th\}, \{tt\}, \{hh, ht\},\{hh, th\},

{hh,tt},{ht,th},{ht,tt},{th,tt},\{hh, tt\},\{ht, th\},\{ht, tt\},\{th, tt\},

{hh,ht,th},{hh,ht,tt},{hh,th,tt},\{hh, ht, th\}, \{hh, ht, tt\},\{hh, th, tt\},

{ht,th,tt},{hh,ht,th,tt}\{ht, th, tt\},\{hh, ht, th, tt\}
