Question

How many possibilities are there when you toss a coin and draw a card from a standard deck of cards? A.54 B.72 C.112 D.104

Answer 1

I think D would be the correct answer

Answer 2

The answer is option D : 104

Explanation:

When we toss a coin only 2 outcomes are possible, either a heads or a tails.

Similarly, when a card is drawn from a standard deck of cards there are 52 possibilities as there are 52 cards in total.

So, when we are simultaneously doing both things, the possibilities will multiply.

Therefore, the number of possibilities when you toss a coin and draw a card from a standard deck of cards are :

p(a) x p(b)

=>
`2*52` = 104

Hence, the answer is 104.
