A fair sided spinner has five equal sections numbered 1 to 5, a fair six sided dice has five red faces and one green face. what is the probability of getting an even number and the colour green
The probability on the spinner for each section is 0.2 or written a 2 in 5 ( 1 divided by 5 as it has equal sections)
The probability for landing the green side of the dice is 1 in 6
In order to obtain the combined probability you must multiply both together
(1 in 6) * (2 in 5) = (2 in 30 which can be written as 0.066
