Question

The list below shows all the possible outcomes for tossing a coin and rolling 1 to 6 number cube. What is the probability that max tosses heads and rolls a number greater than two

Answer 1

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

In the coin there is heads or tails (2 possible results), so the probability of tossing heads is 1/2

For the number cube, we have 6 possible results. If we want a result greater than two, we have 3, 4, 5 or 6, so we have 4 of the 6 results, then the probability is 4/6.

Now, to find the final probability, we multiply both probabilities above:

Probability = (1/2) * (4/6) = 2/6 = 1/3
