Question

P’(rolling a number less than five and landing on tails)

Answer 1

Answer:

P’(rolling a number less than five and landing on tails) = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

dice has 6 numbers and you only want 4 of them, so you have a 4 in 6 chance of doing that which is equal to 4/6 or 2/3

a coin has 2 side so the chance of getting tails is 1 in to or 1/2

therefore the probability of getting a number less than 5 and a tails is

4/6 times 1/2 = 4/6 x 1/2 = 4/12 = 1/3

or you can do it this way:

2/3 times 1/2 = 2/3 x 1/2 = 2/6 = 1/3
