Question

Find the probability given that each set of events is independent: drawing a 3 from 5 cards numbered 1 through 5 and rolling an even number on a number cube. A 3/30 = 1/10 b 4/30 = 2/15 c 2/30 = 1/15 d None of the above

Answer 1

1/10

Explanation:

So first we need to find the probability of the cards, there is 5 cards and one card needs to be chosen, so the probability is 1/5

Then we need to find the probability of the dice, there is 3 even numbers in 1,2,3,4,5,and 6, so the probablity is 3/6 which is also equal to 1/2

Finaly we need to multiply 1/5 with 1/2, which is 1/10
