Question

You roll a six sided number cube and flip a coin.What is the probability of rolling a number less than 6 and flipping heads?Write fraction in simplest form

Answer 1

5/12

Explanation:

Probability to roll a number<6 = 5/6 (each number has probability of 1/6, and there are 5 numbers < 6)

Probability to toss heads = 1/2

Condition "and" = multiplication of probabilities=5/6*1/2=5/12
