Draw tree diagram for rolling cube and flipping the coin.

The number of observation in sample space is 12.

The possible outcome for number 5 and coin with head up is 1.

Determine the probability for number 5 and coin with head up.


P=(1)/(12)

So probability for number 5 and coin with head up is 1/12.
