Step 1: Probability of flipping a coin two times

Probability = number of required outcome/number of possible outcome


\begin{gathered} \text{Probability of flipping required head coins = }1 \\ Total\text{ number of possible coins = 4} \\ \text{Probability of flipping coins twice = }(1)/(4) \end{gathered}

Step 2 : Probability of rolling a 3 on a die

Probability = number of required outcome/number of possible outcome


\begin{gathered} \text{ number of rolling a 3 on a die = 1} \\ \text{Total number of possible die = 6} \\ \text{Probability of rolling a 3 on a die = }(1)/(6) \end{gathered}

Therefore

Probability of flipping a coin two times,

with the coin landing on heads all two times, and

rolling a 3 on a die =


(1)/(4)\text{ }*\text{ }(1)/(6)\text{ = }(1)/(24)
