Answer:

A. 1/12

Explanation:

There are 2 outcomes for a coin, heads and tails.

To get heads, it's 1/2.

There are 6 outcomes for a six-sided number cube, 1,2,3,4,5,6.

To get a 2, and since there is only one 2, it's 1/6.

Multiply them together, 1/2 times 1/6, you get 1/12.

The heads probability is ½ and the two’s probability is 1/6. So ½ x 1/6 gives you 1/12. The answer is A. 1/12. Hope this helps.
