Answer :

The probability of getting AB is;

[tex]\frac{2}{15}[/tex]

Here, we want to get the probability of getting a result of AB

What this mean is that we get A on the first spinner, and B on the second spinner

For the first spinner, there are only three possible results. This means that each result has an individual probability of 1/3

So the probability of getting A from the first spinner is 1/3

For the second spinner, we have 5 possible results

Out of all these, there are 2 B's

So the probability of getting or selecting a B in this case is 2/5

Hence, the probability of getting the result AB is the product of these two

We have this as;

[tex]\frac{1}{3}\times\frac{2}{5}=\frac{2}{15}[/tex]
