Question

Zack flips a coin and rolls a number cube with sides labeled 1 to 6. What is the probability that he will get heads and a number greater then 4?

Answer 1

he has a 50/50 chance to land on heads and a 2/6 chance of getting greater than 4

Answer 2

Well a penny has two sides, so the chance of having it land on heads, is 50%. A dice has six sides. And if you want a number greater than four, you have to land it on five or six. Meaning the chance of getting a number higher than four, is 2/6.
