In a game, two players each spins the spinners and add the two numbers. Player A wins with a sum of 6 ormore. Otherwise player B wins. Determine whether the game is fair.

The game is not fair. That's because it is not possible to get a sum of 6 with two numbers of the spinner since these are 1, 2 or 3, so player A could get a sum or 3,4, or 5, but not 6.

Thus, the game is not fair and Player B would always win.
