Answer:

5/18 probability

Step-by-step explanation:

So the P(A and B) where P() is probability and A is an event and B is an event is the product of P(A) and P(B):

So P(A): where A is the event where the spinner gets odd is:

5 events / 9 total events (5 events being : 1,3,5,7,9) = 5/9

So P(B): where B is the event where the dice gets odd is:

3 events / 6 total events (3 events being : 1,3,5) = 1/2

SO P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B) = 5/9 * 1/2 = 5/18
