Question

You roll a six sided number cube and flip a coin. What is the probability of rolling a number greater than 5 and flipping heads.

Answer 1

1/6 for the number cube and 1/2 for coin

Explanation:

Answer 2

1/12

Explanation:

There are a total of 12 possible outcomes (numbers 1 through 6, and a heads or tails for each one). There is only 1 outcome where the number rolled is greater than 5 (has to be 6) and you flip a head.

So there is a 1 out of 12 chance.
