Question

David flips a coin and rolls a standard number cube. Find the probability that the coin will show heads and the cube will show a three

Answer 1

i think i get this. the coin would be 1/2 chance of heads and the cube is 1/6 
i hope this helped

Answer 2

Answer: $\dfrac{1}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of possible outcomes for a coin = 2

The number of possible outcomes for a number cube =6

When we flips a coin and rolls a standard number cube, the total number of possible outcomes will be :-

$N=2\times6=12$

The favorable outcome for the coin will show heads and the cube will show a three (H,3)=1

Then , the required probability will be :-

$\dfrac{\text{Favorable outcome}}{\text{Total outcomes}}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{12}$

Hence, the the probability that the coin will show heads and the cube will show a three$=\dfrac{1}{12}$
