    Answer: 5,499,187,200

    Step-by-step explanation:

    A coin is tossed 5 times.

    There are two options (heads or tails) so the possible outcomes are: 2⁵

    A six-sided die is rolled 4 times.

    There are six options so the possible outcomes are: 6⁴

    A group of 3 cards are drawn (without replacement).

    The first outcome has 52 options, the second has 51 options, and the third has 50 options: 52 x 51 x 50

    Now if we want the coin AND the die AND the cards, we have to multiply all of their possible outcomes:

    2⁵ x 6⁴ x 52 x 51 x 50

    = 32 x 1296 x 132,600

    = 5,499,187,200

    Answer: 916531200 or

    9.165132 x 10^8

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If a coin is tossed 5 times, and then a standard six-sided die is rolled 4 times, and finally, a group of three cards is drawn from a standard deck of 52 cards without replacements, how many different outcomes are possible?

    a coin is tossed 5 times,

    outcomes: 2^5 = 32

    and then a standard six-sided die is rolled 4 times,

    outcomes: 6^4 = 1296

    and finally, a group of three cards is drawn from a standard deck of 52 cards without replacements

    It says a "group", so, I guess the order doesn't matter ... So it is "52 choose 3"

    52*51*50 / (3*2*1) = 52*17*25

    how many different outcomes are possible?

    32*1296*52*17*25 = 916531200
