Yeremy has a fair 2 sided coin and a spinner with 4 sections labled A, B, C and D. He will spin the spinner and flip the coin one time each.
What is the probability the spinner will land on B and the coin will land on heads?
1/8
1/4
1/6
1/2
The probability of the spinner landing on B is 1/4 since there are 4 sections on the spinner, and each section has an equal chance of being landed on.
The probability of the coin landing on heads is 1/2 since there are only 2 sides to the coin, and a fair coin has an equal chance of landing on either side.
To find the probability of both events occurring together, we multiply their individual probabilities:
1/4 x 1/2 = 1/8
Therefore, the probability that the spinner will land on B and the coin will land on heads is 1/8.
