Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{3}{4}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( P(\text{tail}) = \frac{1}{2} \) \( P(\text{number} > 3) = \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2} \) \( P(\text{tail} \cap \text{number} > 3) = P(\text{tail}) \times P(\text{number} > 3) = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{4} \)…
