Answer #1

As the spinner has 5 different numbers and it is spun 5 times. Then the total number of outcomes is 55= 3125.

Here the event is A= the spinner lands on the numbers all less than 3. Thus each time the spinner has 2 possible outcomes hence the total number of favorable outcomes is 55= 32. One of such event is {1,2,2,1,2}.

Also the Probability of event A is:

32 P(A) 0.01024 3125
