To solve the problem, we need to find the conditional probability of the event that the coin shows a tail, given that at least one die shows a 2. We will break down the solution step by step. ### Step 1: Define the Sample Space When we throw a die, the possible outcomes are {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. If a multiple of 3 (which are 3 and 6) comes up, we throw the die again. If any other number (1, 2, 4, 5) comes up, we toss a coin. ### Step 2: Identify Events - Let event E be the event that the coin shows a tail. - Let event F be the event that at least one die shows a 2. ...
