In a coin-die game, 2 coin outcomes and 6 die outcomes are considered. How many total outcomes are there by combining one coin outcome and one die outcome?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 12 outcomes

The governing idea is the fundamental principle of counting. The coin has 2 possible outcomes, such as heads and tails, while the die has 6 possible outcomes, numbered 1 through 6. For each fixed coin result, the die can show any of its 6 results, so there are 6 pairs for that coin result. Repeating this for both coin results gives 2 × 6 = 12 ordered combined outcomes. Therefore, option A is correct. Adding 2 and 6 gives 8, but addition is not appropriate because one result from each experiment must be paired. Option C counts only die results, and option D incorrectly multiplies 6 by itself.
