Answer:

1/12

Explanation:

the quarter has 2 sides and the cube has 6 your looking tails and a 5 the best way to put this is h1 h2 h3 h4 h5 h6 as that stands for heads and 1-6 then we can say that tails will have the same thing t1 t2 t3 t4 t5 t6 and we're looking for t5 and that only shows up once out of the 12 options
