You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The coin has 2 outcomes, and the number cube has 6. The total number of outcomes is 2*6 = 12.

For additional explanation on PROBABILITY, please see my own website. The easiest way to find it is to use the easy to spell and easy to remember link www.mathinlivingcolor.com. On this single page website, there is a link at the bottom of the page that takes you to my Homepage.

In the middle of my homepage, look for the link "Intro to Probability". You may find my explanations easier to understand than the traditional textbooks.
