Divide the number of times of landing on an even number both times by the
number of possible outcomes.
First, find the number of times of getting an even number both times. Then, divide
that number by the number of possible outcomes.
Correct!
You can make a table to help you organize all the possible outcomes.

The outcome of the first spinner does not affect the outcome of the second spinner, so the events are
independent.
P(5 and 5) = P(5) • P(5) = 16 • 16 = 361
