what is the probability of rolling an odd number on the first roll of a six-sided cube and rolling an even number on the second roll?

Answer 1

The probability of rolling an odd number on the first roll of a six-sided cube is 3/6, since there are 3 odd numbers on a six-sided cube (1, 3, 5).

The probability of rolling an even number on the second roll is 3/6, since there are 3 even numbers on a six-sided cube (2, 4, 6).

To find the overall probability of both events happening, we multiply the individual probabilities together:

(3/6) * (3/6) = 9/36

Therefore, the probability of rolling an odd number on the first roll and an even number on the second roll of a six-sided cube is 9/36, or 1/4, which is approximately 0.25 or 25%.
