A baseball player comes up to bat 3 times during a league game. He either gets a hit or gets an out. What is the probability that the player gets 3 hits in the three bats?

Since there are 2 possibilities for each bat (hit or out), the amount of total possibilities is 2 * 2 * 2 = 8. There is only one possibility out of those eight that gives us three hits, therefore the probability is 1 / 8 or 0.125.
