Jeremy will roll a number cube numberd 1-6 twicewhat is the probabilty of rolling an even number then the number 3?

Answer 1

To find the probability of rolling an even number followed by the number 3 on a six-sided number cube, first, determine the probability of rolling an even number (2, 4, or 6), which is 3 favorable outcomes out of 6 possible outcomes, or ( \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2} ). The probability of rolling a 3 is ( \frac{1}{6} ). Since these two events are independent, multiply the probabilities: ( \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{6} = \frac{1}{12} ). Thus, the probability of rolling an even number followed by a 3 is ( \frac{1}{12} ).
