Question

Tom rolls a fair dice and flips a fair coin.

What is the probability of obtaining a number bigger than 2 and a head?

Answer 1

1/3 or 33.33333333%

Explanation:

The chance of getting a head in the coin flip is 1/2 or 50%.

The chance of getting a number bigger than 2 (3,4,5,6) is 4/6 or 2/3 or 66.6666666666%. (There are a total of four possibilites in six.)

Hence, 50% * 2/3 = 33.333333333333%.

Hope this helped!
