Question

A coin is flipped, a die is rolled, and a card is drawn from a standard deck of cards. What is the probability of the following event? P(tails and 3, and king)?

Answer 1

can u find the probability of getting a tail when a coin is flipped ?
p(tail) = ?

Answer 2

I'll try, Hold on.

Answer 3

1/2? idk :/

Answer 4

yup, its 1/2.
now do u know the probability of getting a 3 when a dice is rolled ?

Answer 5

I think, Isn't it P(even)=3/6 and P(odd)=1/2?

Answer 6

yes, but we want P(3)
now since a dice has 1 to 6 faces, and 3 appears only once,
the probability of getting a '3' will be 1/6
got this ?

Answer 7

Got it.

Answer 8

so what did u get your final answer as?

Answer 9

But it also says a king?

Answer 10

If you mulitply 1/2 and 1/6 you get 1/12

Answer 11

yes, king is remaining,
there are 4 kings in deck of 52 cards.
so probability is 4/52 = 1/13
overall probability = 1/2 * 1/6 * 1/13

Answer 12

1/156?

Answer 13

yup, thats correct

Answer 14

Yay, Okay. Thanks Again cx

Answer 15
