RE: Percentages Question
i cant really remember statistics from school but i realy seem to remember that with this thing, when you didnt have to worry about the order, you would times it by

{n
  x}

where n was the total number of trials (5 in this case) and x was the number of things that you were measuring (2 in this case). And i think the formula was

Probability of x times: {n x} x (probability of event happening)^x  x (probability of event not happening)^(n-x)
