Answer

A

(1, H), (2, H), (3, H), (4, H), (5, H), (6, H), (1, T), (2, T), (3, T), (4, T), (5, T), (6, T)

B

(1, H), (2, H), (3, H), (4, H), (5, H), (6, H), (1, H), (2, H), (3, H), (4, H), (5, H), (6, H)

C

(1, T), (2, T), (3, T), (4, T), (5, T), (6, T), (1, T), (2, T), (3, T), (4, T), (5, T), (6, T)

D

(1, H), (3, H), (5, H), (2, T), (4, T), (6, T)

Explanation

The die can show any of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, and the penny can land heads (H) or tails (T). Pair each die result with both coin outcomes, giving 6 × 2 = 12 possible outcomes. Choice A lists all 12 pairs: each number paired once with H and once with T.
