The spinner has 4 equal sectors A, B, C and D. A cube also have 6 sides. The number of possible outcome will be 4 possible outcome for the spinnner and 6 possible outcome for the cube . The total outcome will be 10.

The second answer is as follows


\begin{gathered} \text{probability of landing an A = }(1)/(4) \\ \text{Probability of landing an even number = }(3)/(6)=(1)/(2) \\ The\text{ probability of landing on A and even number=}(1)/(4)*(1)/(2)=(1)/(8) \end{gathered}
