Answer

$\frac{1}{4}$

Work Step by Step

The events are independent: 3 even sides out of 6 total sides=2 P(blue even)=$\frac{3}{6}$ P(blue even)=$\frac{1}{2}$ 3 even sides out of 6 total sides= P(green even)=$\frac{3}{6}$ P(green even)=$\frac{1}{2}$ P(blue even and green even)=P(blue even) $\times$ P(green even) P(blue even and green even)=$\frac{1}{2}$ $\times$ $\frac{1}{2}$ P(blue even and green even)=$\frac{1}{4}$
