Question

A coin and a die are tossed once together. Find the total number of outcomes. I want step by step explanation. please

Answer 1

Answer: Outcomes of a coin will be 2(either heads or tails) and Outcomes of a die will be6(1,2,3,4,5,6).So total outcomes will be 2+6=8.

Hope this helps you.

Answer 2

Answer:

The total number of outcomes is 12 when dice and coin is tossed

Step-by-step explanation:

• The probability is determined from the total number of outcomes.
• For the single dice , the number of outcomes is 6.
• For the coin the number of outcomes is 2.
• The total number of outcomes when the coin and dice is tossed together is 12.
• The sample space for the given question is

      $(1,T),(2,T),(3,T),(4,T),(5,T),(6,T),(1,H),(1,H),(2,H),(3,H),(4,H),(5,H),(6,H),$

• Total number of outcomes in sample space is 12

Another method:

• Multiply outcomes of the both cases.
• Total number of outcomes=2x6=12
