Question

A game includes rolling a number cube with numbers 1-6 and then flipping a coin.
What is the probability of rolling a 5 and getting tails?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{1}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the probabilities of rolling a die and of flipping a coin are independent, we have:

P(rolling a 5) = 1/6 P(tails) = 1/2

Multiplying these probabilities:

$\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{12}$

Answer 2

Answer:

Probability of rolling a 5 on number cubeStep-by-step explanation: -1/6

Probability of getting tails- 1/2

Probability of rolling a 5 and getting tails -1/12
