Question

John rolls a six-sided number cube twice. What is the probability of getting an even number and then an odd number?

Answer 1

Multiply 3/6 x 3/6 and then reduce

Answer 2

Answer:
`(1)/(4)`

Explanation:

Given : John rolls a six-sided number cube twice.

Total number of outcomes on a fair cube = 6

When we roll two dices , then the total number of outcomes :-

`6*6=36`

Number of favorable outcomes of getting an even number and then an odd number :-

`3*3=9` [since there are 3 odd and 3 even numbers on it]

Now, the probability of getting an even number and then an odd number =

`(9)/(36)=(1)/(4)`
