Answer:
The probability of rolling an odd number and flipping tails is B. 1/4.
Explanation:
Rolling a number cube and flipping a coin are both examples of Independent Events. Independent events are events of probability that do not rely on previous events. This means that no matter how many times we flip the coin or roll the die, our odds for a certain outcome are the same. Probability can be expressed as a fraction of: the number of desired outcomes/the total number of outcomes. In the case of a number cube with numbers 1 - 6, the odds of rolling an odd number (1, 3, 5) is 3/6, or 1/2. Likewise, the odds that you flip a coin and get tails is 1/2. Because we are combining these events, we take the probability of each and multiply them: 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4.
