Given that A number cube (die) is rolled and a coin is tossed.
Quantity A: Number of outcomes in which an even number is rolled on the cube, and a head is tossed on the coin
Number of outcomes out of six (1,2,3,4,5,6) in which we can get an even number in a cube = 3
Number of outcomes out of 2 (head or Tail) in which we can get a head in a coin toss = 1
=> Total number of ways of both happening = 3*1 = 1
Clearly, Quantity A = Quantity B = 3
So, Answer will be C
Hope it helps!

The possible outcomes are:
SET = [{2,H},{4,H},{6,H}]
Option C, both quantities are equal.
