&lt;br&gt;
That gives you 8 spaces numbered 1, 1, 2, 3, 2, 5, 4, 4, all with equal probability of landing on them.&lt;br&gt;
So that looks like ONE very good way to start working on the problem; then finishing should be easy:&lt;br&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
             number of even-numbered sections
  P(even) = ----------------------------------
                total number of sections&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;br&gt;
------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br&gt;
added after seeing the response from the other tutor....&lt;br&gt;
The question you asked was whether dividing the large region into two regions each the size of the other 6 regions was a good idea.  I replied that it was.&lt;br&gt;
When you continue working on the problem, there is a problem.  It is not clear what it means to ask for the probability that if the spinner is spun twice it lands on an even number.&lt;br&gt;
Does that mean land on an even number both times?  or exactly one time?  or at least one time?&lt;br&gt;
The answers to those three different questions are different....</PRE>
