A basket contains 6 pieces of paper numbered from 1 to 6. A hat contains the letters A, B, and C. If a blindfolded person picks a number and a letter, what is the probability that the number is even and the letter is A?

Answer :

mathmate
the two events are independent, so the probability of both happening is the product of the two.

Probability of picking an even number is 3/6=1/2
Probability of picking the letter A is 1/3 = 1/3

Product of probability of two independent events = (1/2)(1./3)=1/6.
