There are 6 numbers on the spinner and 4 of them are odd (3, 5, 7).
To calculate the probability of landing on an odd number and then a number less than 6, we first need to find the total number of favorable outcomes. We can list the possible outcomes:
Odd number for the first spin:
1. 3 and number less than 6
2. 5 and number less than 6
3. 7 and number less than 6
Therefore, there are 3 favorable outcomes.
The total number of possible outcomes when spinning the spinner twice is 6 * 6 = 36 (6 choices for the first spin and 6 choices for the second spin).
So, the probability of landing on an odd number and then a number less than 6 is 3/36 = 1/12 = 0.0833...
As a percentage, this is 8.33%.
