Paul and Erin are playing a board game. The spinner has 4 colors on it. Paul needs to spin red two times in order to win. What is the probability that he spins red two times in a row?

The chance of red on the first spin is 1/4 (25%).

The chance of red on the second spin is 1/4 (25%).

The chance of red on both spins is (1/4) x (1/4) = 1/16 (6.25%)
