Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the multiples of 5 within 1-10 are of course 5, and 10. There are 2 numbers out of 10 or 2/10 which is simplified to 1/5

On a 1-10 spinner there are 10 numbers and 2 multiples of 5 (5 and 10).

If you write the probabilty as a fraction:
\bf (2)/(10)

If you write the probability as a decimal: 0,2

If you write the probability as a e percentage: 20%

Hope it helped,

Happy homework/ study/ exam!
