Question

The probability that she will toss tails and a number less than 3

Answer 1

The probability of getting tails on a coin is 0.5 or 1/2.
The probability of getting a number LESS than 3 on a dice is 2/6 or 1/3.
Why? Because less than 3 means {1, 2} are counted but {3, 4, 5, 6} are not in the probability. So it's 2/6 with 6 sides on a dice.

To find the probability of both occurring at once, multiply the two probabilities together, 1/2 * 1/3, and you will get 1/6.

The answer therefore is 1/6 (A).
