The six sides of a number cube are labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. You flip a coin and roll the number cube. What is the theoretical probability that the coin lands on tails and you roll a 5?

I think 1/12. The probability of getting tails is 1/2. And the probability of rolling a 5 on a die is 1/6. 1/6x1/12 is 1/12.

I don’t know if it is correct.

Answer:

1/8

Explanation:

because if there is two faces of a coin [heads & tails] and there are [probably, i'm not sure], 6 numbers on the cube. 2+6=8. 1/8. again, i'm not sure. im guessing lol
