<em>The fair die</em> will roll 1 3 5 three times out of six or 3/6 which can be reduced down to 1/2.
<em>Chips </em>There are 3 chips all together. Two of them are red. That means that she has 2/3 chances of pulling up a red
Combine
When you have 2 events that are independent of one another, then the probabilities are multiplied together. The red chips cannot be left at 2/3 for example, because a "win" depends on the die coming up odd. The 2/3 must go down.
P(die_odd) * P(red_chip) = 2/3 * 1/2 = 1/3
Answer 1/3 <<<<

Notice the probability is lower than either one of the givens.
Answer:
96
Step-by-step explanation:
12x8=96
5/6x + 7 = 12 - 5/12x
subtract 7 from each side
5/6x = 5 - 5/12x
add 5/12x to each side
5/12x + 5/6x = 5
Find common denominator
5/12x + 10/12x = 5
combine like terms
15/12x = 5
divide each side by 15/12 (multiply the reciprocal)
x = 5 × 12/15
x = 60/15
x = 4
