Use the image to answer the question.

An illustration of a circle with four equal differently colored parts labeled 1, 2, 3, 4 clockwise. An arrow starting at the center points toward 1.

The spinner is spun twice. What is the probability of spinning an even number on both spins? Express your answer as a simplified fraction.

There are two even numbers on the spinner: 2 and 4. Since there are a total of four numbers on the spinner, the probability of spinning an even number on each spin is 2/4, or 1/2.

Therefore, the probability of spinning an even number on both spins is (1/2) * (1/2) = 1/4.
