First, note that one even is independent of the other. If A and B are two independent events, the probability of A and B, written P(A and B) is P(A)xP(B). So if event A is the probability of a 5, P(A)=1/6 and if B is heads, P(B)=1/2 So P(A and B)=1/6 x1/2=1/12

The probability of flipping Heads on a coin is 1 - a certainty - if the coin is flipped often enough. On a single toss of a fair coin the probability is 1/2.


What is the expected number of flips of a coin to simulate a six-sided die?

Five coin flips. Any outcome on a six-sided die has a probability of 1 in 6. If I assume that the order of the outcome does not matter, the same probability can be achieved with five flips of the coin. The possible outcomes of five flips of a coin are as follows: 5 Heads 5 Tails 4 Heads and 1 Tails 4 Tails and 1 Heads 3 Heads and 2 Tails 3 Tails and 2 Heads For six possible outcomes.


What is the probability of tossing a coin and landing on heads and rolling 5 on a single fair 6 sided dice?

the probability of tossing a coin and it landing on head is a 1 in 2 chance the probability of rolling a 5 on a dice is a 1 in 6 chance
