What is the probability of flipping a fair coin and it landing on heads and rolling a 3 on a fair six sided die

Answer 1

To calculate the probability of two independent events both occurring, we multiply the individual probabilities.

1. The probability of flipping a fair coin and it landing on heads is 1/2.
2. The probability of rolling a 3 on a fair six-sided die is 1/6.

Therefore, the probability of both events occurring is (1/2) * (1/6) = 1/12 or approximately 0.0833.
