Probability of a spinner and a coin

Question

A spinner has 20 sections 14 yellow and 6 are blue, the spinner is spun, at the same time a coin is tossed, what is the probability the spinner lands on blue and the coin is tail?

Answer 1

For two independent events, you will use the multiplication rule.

To determine probability of Blue and Tails:

P(blue and tails) = P(blue) * P(tails)

= (6/20)(1/2) = 3/20 = .15
