To find the total number of outcomes, we can multiply the number of outcomes for each independent event.
1. Rolling a die: There are 6 possible outcomes (1 through 6).
2. Flipping a coin: There are 2 possible outcomes (heads or tails).
3. Picking a marble: If we assume there are 2 different marbles (for example, red and blue), then there are 2 possible outcomes.
Now, we multiply the number of outcomes:
Total outcomes = (outcomes from the die) × (outcomes from the coin) × (outcomes from the marble) = 6 × 2 × 2 = 24.
Since none of the answer options match 24, please check the scenario regarding the marbles. If there is a different number of marbles, the total number of outcomes will change accordingly.
If you only have a single marble, then the answer would be 12 (6 from the die and 2 from the coin gives you 6 × 2 = 12).
So, depending on that assumption, if we assume 1 marble:
A) 12 is the correct answer.
I encourage you to clarify the number of marbles involved for an accurate total calculation! If you have more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask!
