Question

A spinner contains three letters of the alphabet how many outcomes are possible if the spinner is spun 3 times

( the letters are K, V, and H

Answer 1

If the spinner is spun three times, there are three possibilities for each spin, so there are 3*3*3=27 possible outcomes.  Note that the letters on the spinner are extraneous information (i.e. you don't need to know what the letters are to solve the problem).
