Probability Problems?Help plz?!?

I don't get it. How do you find the probability that a spinner (1-6) stops on the same number that you roll with a number cube. And then if you flip a coin 5 times. What is the probability that the results are all heads or all tails? I tried looking this up on Google, but nothing good came up.

    spinner probability on any # = 1/6

    die probability on any # = 1/6

    so probability of both = 1/6 * 1/6 = 1/36

    Probability of 5 heads or 5 tails

    1/2 * 1/2 *1/2 *1/2 *1/2 = 1/32

    If each and every senior's call is put in thrice then there are 3 hundred seniors names in the lottery and in addition there are 3 hundred juniors names and 200 sophomores names so in finished there are 800 in the lottery of which 3 hundred are seniors as a result the prospect that a senior's call would be picked is 3 hundred/800=3/8
