Answer:

1/6

Explanation:

The total number of sections = 6

Number of sections labelled 2 =2

Therefore:

[tex]P(sp\text{inning a 2)=}\frac{2}{6}[/tex]

Number of sections labelled a 3 or a 1 = 3

[tex]P(sp\text{inning a 3 or a 1)=}\frac{3}{6}[/tex]

Therefore, the required probability is:

[tex]\begin{gathered} =\frac{2}{6}\times\frac{3}{6} \\ =\frac{6}{36} \\ =\frac{1}{6} \end{gathered}[/tex]
