Solution Steps

Step 1: Determine the number of outcomes for flipping a coin

Flipping a coin has 2 possible outcomes: Heads (H) or Tails (T).

Step 2: Determine the number of outcomes for spinning the spinner

The spinner has 4 sections labeled U, Q, R, and T. Therefore, there are 4 possible outcomes.

Step 3: Determine the number of outcomes for picking a marble

There are 3 marbles of different colors: blue, orange, and pink. Therefore, there are 3 possible outcomes.

Step 4: Calculate the total number of possible outcomes

To find the total number of possible outcomes, multiply the number of outcomes for each individual event: \[ 2 \text{ (coin outcomes)} \times 4 \text{ (spinner outcomes)} \times 3 \text{ (marble outcomes)} = 24 \]

Final Answer

There are 24 possible outcomes.
