Question

Theresa rolls a 12-sided dice and flips a

coin. What is the probability that she will
roll a 7 and land on heads?

Answer 1

The probability is 1/24

Explanation:

For a 12-sided dice, there are 12 different possible results

so the possibility of rolling a 7 is just one of the results

The probability of this is simply 1/12

For landing on head, the probability is 1/2

So the probability of the event occurring is the product of these two events

We have this as;

1/2 * 1/12 = 1/24
