Question

You have 5 cards: M, N, P, Q, R, and flip a coin: H, T. How many outcomes are possible?

a) 12
b) 5
c) 10
d) 2

Answer 1

The total number of outcomes is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks how many outcomes are possible when flipping a coin and choosing one card out of a set of 5 cards. To find the number of outcomes, we multiply the number of outcomes for each event.

When flipping a coin, there are 2 possible outcomes: heads (H) or tails (T).

When choosing one card out of 5 cards, there are 5 possible outcomes: M, N, P, Q, or R.

So the total number of outcomes is 2 * 5 = 10.
