Amy flips a coin and rolls a standard number cube. Find the probability that the coin will show heads and the cube will show one.
Write the probability as a fraction in the simplest form.

Respuesta :

Answer:

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, when a coin is flipped, we either get a head or a tail

These are equal probabilities of 1/2 each

So to show heads, we have a probability of 1/2

In a standard cube, there are 6 numbers (1-6)

now, we have only 1 one

the probability of it showing up would be 1/6

So the probability of both occurring would be the product

So we have this as;

1/6 * 1/2 = 1/12
