An experiment consists of flipping a single coin followed by rolling a six-sided cube (a die).

Over [174]

Answer: $\frac{1}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, first, you want to find the probability of getting a head, which would be 1/2 because there are two options and we are only looking for one out of the two. Then, the probability of getting a 6 would be 1/6 because there is only one chance of getting a 6 and there are 6 options. Next, you would have to multiply both quantities to find out what the probability would be of getting both. So it would be $\frac{1}{2}$ × $\frac{1}{6}$ = $\frac{1}{12}$
