Answer:

60%

Explanation:

There are only even and odd numbers. If a number is not even, it is odd. If the probability of spinning an even number is 0.4, or 40%, then just subtract that by the whole spinner, which is equivalent to 100%:

100% - 40%

= 60%

This means that the odds of spinning an odd number is 60%

Hope this helps! Tell me if I'm wrong please!
