Question 1075964: You are tossing a coin, then rolling a die, then drawing a card from a deck of cards. What is the probability that you will get: a head AND an odd number on the die AND a card less than 10 (assume the ace is equal to 1) from the deck? Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Flipping the coin:
P( H ) = 1/2
---------------------
Rolling the die:
There are 6 numbers
1,2,3,4,5,6
3 of them are odd, so
P( odd ) = 3/6
P( odd ) = 1/2
---------------------
There are 52 cards in a deck
There are
cards less than
P( <10 ) = 36/52
P( <10 ) = 9/13
-----------------
Since you want ALL the above,
multiply probabilities
