If a fair coin is flipped twice and a standard 6 sided die is rolled once, what is the likelihood of getting two 'heads' on the coin and a '1' on the die? ​Express your answer as a percent rounded to the tenth place
Likelihood of getting two heads on coin and a 1 on the die expressed as percentage rounded to tenth place is
_____
Solution and explanation
A fair coin is flipped twice.
Since the coin is fair, probability of getting head in first flip is 1/2
probability of getting head in second flip is 1/2.
So Probability of getting two heads
Probability of getting side 1 on a six sided die in a roll is .
So the likelihood of hetting two heads on the coin and 1 on the die is
If we round this likelihood to tenth place we get
