Answer:
*I just learned that in probability if a question has 'and' it means you multiply and if it has 'or' it means you add*
1a) 1/6
There are two numbers greater than four (5 and 6). There are 6 possible numbers you can get, so the fraction would be 2/6, or simplified would be 1/3. There are two options you can get when flipping a coin, so the chance of getting a head is 1/2. This is an 'and' problem so multiply 1/3•1/2 and you get 1/6.
1b) 1/4
There are 3 even numbers (2, 4, and 6), so the probability would be 3/6 or simplified to 1/2. The chance of landing on a tail is also 1/2, as there are two possible options. This is an 'and' problem so multiply 1/2•1/2 and you get 1/4.
2) 1/8
Write out your possible results: HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, THT, TTH, TTT.
3a) 1/8
There are 4 shirt options to choose from. The chance of picking blue is 1/4. There are 2 pant options. The chance of picking black is 1/2. This is an 'and' problem, so multiply 1/4•1/2 and you get 1/8.
3b) 1/4
There are 4 shirt options to choose from. This is an 'or' problem because he can choose an orange shirt OR a red shirt. The probability of picking an orange shirt is 1/4 and the probability of picking a red shirt is 1/4. 'Or' means you use addition so add 1/4+1/4 and you get 2/4 or simplified is 1/2. There are 2 pant options to choose from, so the probability of choosing brown pants is 1/2. Now, this is an 'and' problem, so multiply 1/2•1/2 and you get 1/4.
