Joe rolls a six-sided number cube and flips a coin. What is the probability that he rolls an odd number and flips a head on the coin?

Answer 1

There are three odd numbers on a six-sided number cube, which are 1, 3, and 5. Therefore, the probability of rolling an odd number is 3/6 or 1/2.

There are two possible outcomes when flipping a coin - heads (H) or tails (T). Therefore, the probability of flipping a head is 1/2.

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

1/2 (rolling an odd number) * 1/2 (flipping a head) = 1/4

So, the probability that Joe rolls an odd number and flips a head on the coin is 1/4.
