    Find sample space

    step 1: pick one marbles from 5. there are 5 ways (5C1)

    step 2: toss a cube one time, 1-6. there are 6 ways (6C1)

    total ways (sample space) = 5x6 = 30

    ... multiplication rules

    find event

    step 1: pick one blue marbles from 2. there are 2 ways (2C1)

    step 2: toss a cube one time, get only 1 or 2. there are 2 ways (2C1)

    total ways for event = 2x2 = 4

    p (event) = n (event) / n (sample space) = 4/30
