Answer: Option A

[tex]P=\frac{1}{12}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the first spinner has 3 equal sections. Then there are 3 possible results for the first spinner

So the probability of getting a 2 is:

[tex]P_1 = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Note that the second spinner has 4 equal sections. Then there are 4 possible results for the second spinner

So the probability of getting a 2 is:

[tex]P_2 = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Now, as they are independent events, then the probability of getting a 2 in both spinners is:

[tex]P = P_1 * P_2[/tex]

Finally

[tex]P=\frac{1}{3}*\frac{1}{4}\\\\P=\frac{1}{12}[/tex]
