You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1 A , 2 B's, & 3 C's. Die 1/6
Referring to the figure, think about first picking a card and
then rolling the die. Give the probability in simplest form.
P(not B,not even)
-----------------
P(not B) = 4/6
P(not even) = 3/6
----
Since the events are independent, P(x AND y) = P(x)*P(y)
P(not B and not even) = P(not B)*P(not even) = (4/6)*(3/6) = 12/36 = 1/3
