Question

If you flip a coin and roll a 666-sided die, what is the probability that you will flip a heads and roll a 2?

Answer 1

Answer:
`\frac1{12}`

Explanation:

Outcomes for tossing a coin =2 [tail and head]

Outcomes of rolling a 6-sided die =6

Total outcomes for rolling both = 2 x 6 = 12

Favorable outcomes for getting a head and 2 on die = 1

Probability =
`(favorable\ outcome)/(Total\ outcomes)`

Now , the probability that you will flip a heads and roll a 2
`=\frac1{12}`

Hence, the required probability =
`\frac1{12}`
