The probability of a head is 1/2.
The probability of an odd number is 1/2.
1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4 or 0.25
It is 0.0833... recurring.
The probability of tossing a coin and getting heads is 0.5
It is (1/2)*(1/6) = 1/12
3/8. And the coin tossing is totally irrelevant.
If the coin is tossed and the die rolled sufficiently many times then the probability is 1: the event is a certainty.For just one toss and roll, the probability is 0.25
-3/12
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
Firstly, the probability when tossing a coin and getting a head or tail is 1/2, then rolling a die, there are 6 sides so the chance of rolling any number is 1/6, there are 2 chances of rolling greater than 4 ie 5 and 6, so the probability of rolling a 5 or 6 in 1/3, as these are independent events you multiply the probability getting a heads of tails, (1/2) by the probability of rolling a five or six, (1/3) which gives you 1/6 or 0.1666 recurring.
The probability of rolling a number less than 5; which is a 4, 3, 2, or 1 is 4/6 or 2/3. The probability of tossing a head is 1/2. So, the probability of a roll less than 5 and a head is 2/3*1/2 or 1/3 or 0.333. 4/12
It is 0.0833... recurring.
The probability of tossing a coin and getting heads is 0.5
The probability to tossing a coin and obtaining tails is 0.5. Rolling a die has nothing to do with this outcome - it is unrelated.
A die has six sides, so the probability of rolling an even number is 1 in 2, or 50-50. A coin has two sides, so the probability of flipping the coin and getting heads is 1 in 2, or 50-50. The probability that both will happen together is the one in two OF one in two, or one in FOUR chance that both will happen. So, the probability is 25%.
It is (1/2)*(1/6) = 1/12
3/8. And the coin tossing is totally irrelevant.
If the coin is tossed and the die rolled sufficiently many times then the probability is 1: the event is a certainty.For just one toss and roll, the probability is 0.25
The probability of tossing an odd number (assumed on a die) is 3 in 6 or 1 in 2. The probability of tossing a tail (assumed on a coin) is 1 in 2. Since these are unrelated events, and the question said "and", simply multiply the probabilities to get 1 in 4.
