Answer: 9/25

Step-by-step explanation

The primes on the spinner are {2,3,5}. The value 1 is not prime.

There are 3 values we want out of 5 values total.

3/5 is the theoretical probability of getting a prime.

(3/5)*(3/5) = (3/5)^2 = 9/25 is the theoretical probability of getting two primes in a row. Each spin is independent of one another.

side note: 9/25 = 0.36 = 36% exactly
