Answer:

The probability is 25%

Explanation:

If you need an even number on your first roll, theres 3 numbers you can get(2, 4 ,6) . So the probability is 3 out of 6(50%).

If you need an odd number on your second roll, there's also 3 numbers you can get(1, 3, 5). So the probability is 3 out of 6(50%).

0.50 times 0.50 = 0.25

So your answer is 25%
