This is because there are 3 odd numbers (1, 3, 5) and 3 even numbers (2, 4, 6) on a standard six-sided cube. So the probability of rolling an odd number on the first roll is 3/6 or 1/2, and the probability of rolling an even number on the second roll is also 3/6 or 1/2.
Therefore, the probability of both events happening consecutively is (1/2) * (1/2) = 1/4 or 25%.
