P(2 or H) = P(2) + P(H) - P(2 and H)  

What is the probability of getting a 2 P(2)?  = 1/6

What is the probability of getting heads P(H)?  = 1/2

P(2 and H) is the product of those two events since the events are independent. = 1/6 * 1/2 = 1/12

P(2 or H) = P(2) + P(H) - P(2 and H)  

P(2 or H) = 1/6 + 1/2  - 1/12 = 7/12
