Question

You roll a number cube and flip a coin. What is the probability of rolling a number greater than 1 and flipping heads? Write your answer as a mixed number.

Answer 1

Explanation:

favorable events =2H,3H,4H,5H,6H

number of favorable events=5

Total or exhaustive events are 1H,2H,3H,4,H,5H,6H,1T,2T,3T,4T,5T,6T

Total number of events=12

P=5/12

or

Total events=6×2=12

P=5/6 ×1/2=5/12
