Referring to the figure, think about first picking a card and then rolling the die. Give the probability in simplest form.
P(A, 1) = ____
the figure has 1 A,2 B, 3 C, and a 6 side cube.
i am confused with this problem.. please help?
To find the probability of picking the card "A" and then rolling a 1 on the die, we need to consider the total number of favorable outcomes divided by the total number of possible outcomes.
First, let's find the total number of favorable outcomes. Since there is only 1 card "A" and only 1 side of the die with the number 1, there is only 1 favorable outcome.
Next, let's find the total number of possible outcomes. We have 1 card "A" and a total of 6 cards in total (1 A + 2 B + 3 C). We also have 6 sides on the die. Therefore, there are 6 possible outcomes.
So, the probability of picking the card "A" and then rolling a 1 on the die is 1 favorable outcome divided by 6 possible outcomes, which can be written as:
P(A, 1) = 1/6
Therefore, the probability is 1/6.
