The spinner is divided into 3 equal parts two parts have a 5 on them the other part has a 10. Find the probability that the spinner will land on a 5 both times if the spinner is spun twice.
The probability of spinning a 5 on the first spin is 2/3 because there are two parts with a 5 out of a total of three parts. The same is true for the second spin, so the probability of spinning a 5 both times is:
(2/3) x (2/3) = 4/9
Therefore, the probability that the spinner will land on a 5 both times if the spinner is spun twice is 4/9 or approximately 0.44.
