7/10
Answered by GPT 3.5
When dividing a negative number by a negative number, the two negative signs cancel out and the result is positive.

So, -7 divided by -10 is equivalent to 7 divided by 10, which simplifies to 7/10.

The probability of tossing a fair coin and getting heads is 1/2 since there are two possible outcomes (heads or tails) and they are equally likely.

The probability of rolling a fair number cube and getting a number less than 3 is 2/6 = 1/3 because there are 2 favorable outcomes (rolling a 1 or rolling a 2) out of 6 possible outcomes.

To find the probability of both events happening, you multiply the probabilities of each event occurring:

(1/2) * (1/3) = 1/6

So, the probability of tossing heads followed by rolling a number less than 3 is 1/6.
