[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

There are a total of 8 possible outcomes (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) on the spinner.

To find the probability of landing on an even number and then landing on a number less than 4, we first need to find the number of favorable outcomes.

Even numbers less than 4 are 2 and 6. So, the outcomes that meet both conditions are (2, 2) and (6, 2).

Therefore, there are 2 favorable outcomes.

The probability of landing on an even number and then landing on a number less than 4 is:
2/8 = 1/4

So, the probability is 1/4.
