Question

Robin rolled a die and then flipped a coin. What is the probability she rolled an even number and the coin landed on heads?

Answer 1

1/4

Explanation:

There are 3 even numbers of the 6 numbers on a die.

(1,2,3,4,5,6) are the possible numbers. 2,4,6 are even

P( even number ) = 3/6 = 1/2

P (heads) = 1/2

Since they are independent events, we can multiply the probabilities together

P (even, heads) = 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4
