11 Duncan has a fair 4-sided spinner.
The spinner can land on 2, 3, 5 or 7

Four-sided spinner with sections 2, 3, 5 and 7

Duncan spins the spinner once.

(a)
(i) On the probability scale, mark with a cross (×) the probability that the spinner lands on 4
Probability scale from 0 to 1 with one half marked
(ii) On the probability scale, mark with a cross (×) the probability that the spinner lands on an odd number.
Probability scale from 0 to 1 with one half marked
(2)

Duncan spins the spinner again.

(b) Complete the table to show all the possible outcomes for the two spins of the spinner.
Six outcomes have been done for you.
(3, 2) means 3 on the first spin and 2 on the second spin.
