There are 6 sides on the number cube and you want to roll a 6. You would have a 1 out of 6 chances on getting a 6, or 1/6.

Percentage: 16.66667

There are 2 sides of a coin and you want to flip heads. You would have 1 out of 2 chances, or 50/50, on getting heads, or 1/2.

Percentage: 50%

Assuming that the number cube is 6 sided

6 is one number in a 6 sided cube, so the probability is: 1/6

heads is one side of the coin, with two in all: 1/2

Multiply the two fractions together

1/6 x 1/2 = 1/12

1/12 is your probability

hope this helps
