Answer:

The probability of tossing a tail and then rolling a number greater than 6 is 0.125

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of getting a tail when a coin is tossed is 0.5

The probability of getting a number when an eight-sided die is rolled is 0.125

The probability of getting a number greater than 6 is the for getting a 7 or an 8 which is 1/8 +1/8 =2/8 =1/4 =0.25

The probability of tossing tail then rolling a number greater than 6 will be;

=0.5*0.25 = 0.125---------------you multiply to get the probability of both happening

In three decimal places, it will be 0.125
