d. 1 Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
The probability of anything is the number of ways an event can happen that you consider a success divided by the total number of ways it can happen. In this experiment, you don't care what happens with the red die, so how many results can you possibly get from the green die and how many of those ways do you consider a success in this particular experiment?
