Question 1192612: Wayne will roll a number cube and flip a coin for a probability
experiment. The faces of the number cube are labeled 1 through 6. The

The probability to get a number less than 4 rolling a fair die is 1/2.


The probability to get tail flipping coin is 1/2.


The probability to get both results in the experiment is the product  %281%2F2%29%2A%281%2F2%29 = 1%2F4.     ANSWER
