Answer: 1/2

Because:

P(tail) = Probability of getting a tail on the coin

P(tail)=1/2

P(4)=Probability of getting the number '4' on the dice.

P(4)=1/6

P(tail and 4)=Probability of getting tail on the coin and number '4' on the dice.

P(tail and 4)=p(tail multiply with 4)

P(tail and 4)= 1/2×1/6

P(trail and 4)=1/12

Hope this helps!
