Answer:

40% probability that it lands on a number that is prime.

Explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

10 sided dice

So 10 total outcomes.

Prime numbers:

Of those, 2, 3, 5 and 7 are prime, so 4 of the outcomes.

4*100/10 = 40%

40% probability that it lands on a number that is prime.
