Answer:

Your answer would be 12.5%.

Explanation:

There are two types of spinners here and the outcome of them is independent. That means

P(odd number, C) = P(odd number) * P(C)

There are two odd numbers out of four numbers in the first spinner. The chance of odd number will be:

P(odd) = 2/(2+2)= 1/2= 50%

There are four letters and the desired outcome is C. The chance for C will be:

P(C) = 1/4= 25%

Then the chance will be:

P(odd number, C) = P(odd number) * P(C)

P(odd number, C) =50% * 25% = 12.5%

Therefore, 12.5% will be your final answer.
