Probablity is (desired outcomes)/(total) possible outcomes so the dice 1 is desired and the total poassible outcomes is 6 since 6 numbers so probailty of rolling a 1 is 1/6 then flippin heads desired outcome=1 total possible=2 probabilty is 1/2 so we have 1/6 and 1/2 now we mulitply them 1/6 times 1/2=1/12 the answer is A

A. 1/12

Probability of tossing dice= 1/6
<span>Probability of tossing coin= 1/2
</span>Find least common denominator and mutiply : 1/2*1/6= 1/12
