1. You toss a coin AND roll a die. What is the probability of getting a tail and a 4 on the die?

A. $\frac{1}{2}$

B. $\frac{1}{6}$

C. $\frac{1}{8}$

D. $\frac{1}{12}$

Solution:

Probability of getting a tail when a single coin is tossed

= \frac{1}{2}

Probability of getting 4 when a die is thrown

= \frac{1}{6}

Required probability,

\begin{aligned} = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{6} \\ = \frac{1}{12} \end{aligned}
