Possible outcomes when a coin is tossed = {H,T}

Possible outcomes when a die is thrown = {1,2,3,4,5,6}

When T occurs, experiment is finished. S1 = {T}

When H occurs, a die is thrown.

If the outcome is odd ({1,3,5}), S2 = {H1, H3, H5}

If the outcome is even({2,4,6}), the die is thrown again.,

      S3 = {H21, H22, H23, H24, H25, H26, H41, H42, H43, H44, H45, H46, H61, H62, H63, H64, H65, H66}

The required sample space is:

S = {T, H1, H3, H5, H21, H22, H23, H24, H25, H26, H41, H42, H43, H44, H45, H46, H61, H62, H63, H64, H65, H66}
