Probability is expressed as

number of desired outcomes/number of total outcomes

Given that the spinner contains three A's one B two C and one D, the total outcomes are

A A A B C C D

If the desired outome is the probability of a spinner landing on the letter A, then the number of desired outcomes is the number of A which is 3

The correct answer is 3
