Explanation:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample space for the sum of 2 spins :

Number on spinner = 2, 5, 4

____ 2 ___ 5 _____4

2___ 4 ___ 7 _____ 6

|

5___ 7 ___ 10 ____ 9

|

4___ 6 ___ 9 ____ 8

Hence,

(4, 7, 6, 7, 10, 9, 6, 9, 8)

Probability of getting a sum less than or equal to 8;

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Required outcome =, sum ≤ 8 = 6

Total possible outcomes = 9

P(sum ≤ 8) = 6/9 = 2/3
