Answer:

As we do not have a visual representation of the spinner, we cannot give an accurate answer to this question. However, we can provide a general approach to solving such problems.

To find the probability of an event, we divide the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes.

In this case, we need to find the number of favorable outcomes for the spinner landing on a multiple of 3 or in the dark green region. We then divide this by the total number of possible outcomes.

Assuming the spinner is divided into equal regions, we can determine the number of favorable outcomes by counting the number of regions that satisfy the given conditions. Let's say there are m regions that are multiples of 3, and n regions that are in the dark green region. We also assume that these regions do not overlap.

The total number of possible outcomes is simply the total number of regions on the spinner, which we can denote as t. Therefore, the probability of the spinner landing on a multiple of 3 or in the dark green region is given by:

(m + n) / t

To simplify this fraction, we can try to reduce the numerator and denominator to their lowest terms by dividing both by their greatest common factor.

Without knowing the number of regions, however, we cannot give a specific answer to this problem.
