Question

What is the number of outcomes when a coin is tossed and then a die is rolled only in case a head is shown on the coin?

• A. $6$
• B. $7$
• C. $8$
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is B

$7$

Explanation of the correct option:

When a coin is tossed and if we get a tail, then we have to stop.

So, the number of outcomes is $1$.

When a coin is tossed and if we get a head, then we have to roll a die.

A die will give $6$ outcomes.

So, the total number of outcomes will be,

Total outcomes $=1+6$

$\Rightarrow$ Total outcomes $=7$

Hence, the correct option is $B)7$.
