Answer: 7/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is calculated by number of possible outcomes/ total outcomes
From the question, a coin only has two sides, Head or Tail. Total outcomes is therefore equal to 2
Possible outcome is to toss a head, which is one event
Probability of tossing a head is therefore =1/2
The second part of the question is rolling a die with eight sides.
Here, the die is said to have eight sides, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8. Total outcomes is therefore equal to 8
Possible outcome of rolling a number greater than 5 is 3 possibilities, that is rolling 6, 7 and 8.
Pr(rolling > 5) is 3/8
Therefore, Pr ( head; rolling > than 5)
= 1/2 + 3/8
=7/8
