A single roll of a fair number cube: 1/2
A single toss of a fair coin: 1/2
Both events: 1/4
If they are fair, 1 in 6.
The probabilty of you flipping 3 coins and getting all heads or tails is 0.125 or 1/8.
The probability of flipping a quarter and getting heads is 1 in 2. the probability of rolling a die and getting 6 is 1 in 6.
It is 0.25
These would be independent events; therefore, we can multiply the probabilities of each of the two events. Probability of flipping a head: 1/2 Probability of rolling an odd number with a single die: 1/6 Required probability : 1/2 x 1/6 = 1/12
If they are fair, 1 in 6.
The probabilty of you flipping 3 coins and getting all heads or tails is 0.125 or 1/8.
The probability of rolling a 2 on a die before flipping a heads on a coin is 1 in 12. The probability of rolling a 2 is 1 in 6. The probability of flipping heads is 1 in 2. Since these are sequentially unrelated events, you simply multiply the probabilities together.
The probability of flipping a quarter and getting heads is 1 in 2. the probability of rolling a die and getting 6 is 1 in 6.
It is 0.25
50/50 chance A coin has 2 sides and 1 (half) of them are heads. A number cube has 6 sides and 3 (half) of them are odd
a three on a dice is 1/6 and aheads on a coin is 50%
These would be independent events; therefore, we can multiply the probabilities of each of the two events. Probability of flipping a head: 1/2 Probability of rolling an odd number with a single die: 1/6 Required probability : 1/2 x 1/6 = 1/12
define success and failure. Heads? or tails. What number or set of numbers do you want on the die? A compound event could be heads for the coin and all 3 die are less than 4.
Flipping a coin: two possible outcomes, H or T. Rolling a die: six possible outcomes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. Flipping a coin and rolling a die: 12 possible outcomes. So the sample space has 12 outcomes such as, {H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, H6, T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6 }
If you flip a coin twice, there are four possible results:H HH TT HT T.The result you're interested in is one of the four possibilities.So its probability is 1/4 = 25% .
You take the probability of each event and multiply them. In the case of the given example, your odds or flipping a head and rolling a 5 would be 1/2 * 1/6, which equals 1/12.
