What is the probability of getting a number less than three on a fair die and a tail on a coin flip? (1 point) Responses 1/12 1/12 1/6 1/6 1/4 1/4 1/2
The probability of getting a number less than three on a fair die is 2/6, as there are two outcomes (1 and 2) out of six possible outcomes (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6).
The probability of getting a tail on a coin flip is 1/2, as there is one desired outcome (tail) out of two possible outcomes (head, tail).
To find the probability of both events occurring, we multiply the probabilities together: (2/6) * (1/2) = 1/6.
Therefore, the correct answer is 1/6.
