To determine how many times you are likely to land on blue after spinning the spinner 3 times, we need to find the probability of landing on blue in each individual spin, and then multiply it by the number of spins.

Given that the spinner is divided into three equal sections, each representing yellow, blue, and green with a probability of 1/3, the probability of landing on blue in a single spin is 1/3.

So, for each spin, there is a 1/3 chance of landing on blue. Since you are spinning the spinner 3 times, the probability of landing on blue for each spin remains the same.

To find the probability of a particular outcome happening multiple times, we multiply the individual probabilities.

The probability of landing on blue for each spin is:
1/3 * 1/3 * 1/3 = 1/27

Therefore, you are likely to land on blue approximately 1 time in every 27 spins.
