Jason rolls a fair number cube labeled 1 through 6, and then he flips a coin. What is the probability that he rolls a 3 and flips a head?

Respuesta :

The answer is 1/12

The chance of getting a 3 on a six-sided dice is 1/6

The possibility of getting heads on a two-sided coin is 1/2

6 multiplied by 2 is 12

1 multiplied by 1 is 1

Hope it helps!

Answer:

Probability is 1/12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Jason rolls a cube labeled 1 through 6. Then to get any number when he rolls the cube probability will be = 1/6 = One event/ Total number of events

so probability of rolling a 3 = 1/6

Now he flips a coin then probability of getting head will be = 1/2

Since these two events are totally different therefore getting both the events ( getting 3 on rolling cube and flipping for head) will be = P1 × P2

P = (1/6).(1/2) = 1/12

So the answer is P = 1/12.
