A circular dial is divided into 10 equal parts from the origin toward the circumference. The parts are labeled clockwise from 1 to 28 in increments of 3. Beginning directly to the right, they are marked as 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25, and 28. A needle is fixed vertically at the center, with the arrow pointing directly upward to the line between 22 and 25 at the top center of the dial.

To stop on a multiple of 9, the spinner needs to land on 9, 18, or 27. There are a total of 10 sections on the dial, so the probability of landing on a multiple of 9 is 3/10, which is unlikely.
