Answer 2

The probability that the number rolled is greater than 2 and the coin toss is tails is 1/3

What is the probability that the number rolled is greater than 2 and the coin toss is tails?

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

• A number cube is rolled
• Acoin is tossed

The possible outcomes are

Number cube = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

Coin = {Head, Tail}

This means that

P(Greater than 2) = 4/6

P(Tail) = 1/2

So, we have the required probability to be

P = 4/6 * 1/2

Evaluate

P = 1/3

Hence, the probability is 1/3
