    A die and a coin are tossed. What is the probability of getting a 6 and a tail?

    A die and a coin are tossed. What is the probability of getting a 6 and a tail? Roll a 6: P(6) = 1/6 Flip a tail: P(T) = 1/2 Probability of getting a 6 and a tail: Since both events are independent, we have: P(6 and T) = P(6) * P(T) P(6 and T) = 1/6 * 1/2 P(6 and T) = 1/12
