Hello!

First, let's write the number of possibilities of each event:

• When we ,flip a coin,, we have ,2 possible, results.

,

• Rolling a die,, there are ,6 possible, results.

,

• Picking a random card, in a deck, we have ,56 possible, results.

Attention: In this exercise, we want the number of options of the three events when they happen together. So, we'll have to multiply it, look:


2*6*56=672\text{ possible outcomes.}

Answer:

There are 672 possible outcomes.
