Answer: A

Explanation:

There are 10 possible outcomes on the spinner listed 1-10.
The multiples of 4 are 4, 8, 12, 16, and so on.

On the spinner, there are only 4 and 8 (of the multiples), and out of the 10 outcomes, that's 2/10 of them both.

If you multiply that fraction by 10 (we multiply by 10 since 2/10 isn't on the answer choices, also a number over 100 is also a percent)
that gives us 20/100, or 20%.

Hope that helps!
