Question

A standard number cube is rolled and a card is drawn from a deck of cards numbered 1 to 12. Find P(2 on the number cube and 10 on the card).

Answer 1

Answer:

1/72

Step-by-step explanation:

P(2 on number cube) = 1/6

P(10 on the card) = 1/12

To get the probability of two events at the same time you multiply the probability of the events on their own

$\frac{1}{6}\times\frac{1}{12} =\frac{1}{72}$

∴ P(2 on the number cube and 10 on the card) = $\frac{1}{72}$
