One quarter and one six sided die are tossed. How many outcomes are possible?
1 answer
To find the number of outcomes, we multiply the number of possible outcomes for each event. For a quarter, there are two possible outcomes: heads or tails. For a six-sided die, there are six possible outcomes: numbers 1 to 6. Thus, the total number of outcomes is 2 (number of outcomes for the quarter) multiplied by 6 (number of outcomes for the die), which equals 12. Therefore, there are 12 possible outcomes.
