The probability of rolling an odd number on a fair six-sided die is 1/2 (since there are three odd numbers out of a total of six possible outcomes).

The probability of flipping a coin and it landing on heads is 1/2 as well.

To calculate the probability of both events happening together, you multiply the probabilities of each event occurring:

(1/2) * (1/2) = 1/4

So, the probability that the die shows an odd number and the coin shows a head is 1/4.
