First, find the probability of each event:

1) the probability that the spinner will land on a 7.

Since the spinner is split 4 equal sections and there is only 1 sector with 7, we can say the probability of getting a 7 is 1/4 as there is only 1 of 7 out of the total of 4 sections.

and

2) the probability that the spinner will land on B.

Since the spinner is split into 3 equal sections, and there is only 1 sector for B, we can say the probability of getting B is 1/3.

To find the probability of 2 events, we need to multiply the two probabilities.

1/4*1/3 = 1/12

So the answer is 1/12.
