Question

If I toss a coin and roll a die, what is the probability of getting a head and an odd number?

Answer 1

25% chances are there if getting one head and an odd number.

Answer 2

`(1)/(4)` probability.

Explanation:

For the coin there are 2 possibilities, either head or tail. So probability of head is 1/2.

For the cube there are 6 possibilities. We have 3 odd numbers, so probability of odd number is 3/6=1/2.

So you multiply the 2 probabilities: 1/2×1/2=1/4.

So the answer is 1/4.
