\r\n" );
document.write( "The probability of heads is 1 out of 2 or 1/2\r\n" );
document.write( "The probability of 4 or 5 on the number cube is 2 out of 6 or 2/6 \r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So one half of the times you perform the experiment, the coin will \r\n" );
document.write( "show heads, and two sixths of those times the number cube will show\r\n" );
document.write( "4 or 5.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So the answer is one half of two sixths of the time, or\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "1/2 × 2/6  = 1/6 of the time.\r\n" );
