6 possible outcomes. 3 are even, 1 is a five, that's 4 out of 6 = 2/3 chance of a five or an even outcome on one roll of the die
Pr(5 or even) on one roll of the die = 2/3
If you, however, meant odds of getting a 5 on one roll and even on the 2nd roll, then
Pr(5 1st, even 2nd) = 1/6 x 1/2 = 1/12
But if you meant probability of getting a 5 and an even that could also include an even 1st and then a 5 2nd
which is Pr(5&even) = 1/12 + 1/12 = 1/6
Still, if you asked for the probability of a 5 and an even on just one roll of the die, then Pr(5&even)=0 It's impossible get an even that's a five, five is odd.

P(5 and even) = P(5)·P(even) = 1/6·3/6 = 1/12

Not sure what your question is. What is "a stander die land"? Do you mean "what is the probability that a standard die, when tossed twice, lands on a 5 and an even number?" Please clarify your question.05/28/21
