How many different outcomes arise from first tossing a coin and then rolling a die? |
| Answer» There are 2 possibilities (i.e., head or tail) for the first task (tossing a coin) and after each of these outcomes there are 6 possibilities (i.e., any number from 1 to 6) for the second task (rolling a dice.) thus, by the product rule, there are `2xx6`, i.e., 12 possible outcomes, for the given compound task. | |
