You roll a number cube and flip a coin.What is the probability of rolling a number less than 2 and flipping tails. Write your answer as a mixed number.

Answer 1

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

number cube 6 faces less than 2, only 2 possibilities, leaving us with a fraction of 2/6=1/3

tails is a 50 percent chance or 1/2

3/6 time 2/6

equals:

1/6

the probability of rolling a number less than 2 and flipping tails on a coin is 1/6

find probability of event a: number cube and multiply it by probability of event b: coin
