Latricia determines that the probability of spinning an even number and then a 3 on the spinner below is

Which best describes the accuracy of Latricia’s solution?

• Latricia’s solution is accurate.

• Latricia’s solution is inaccurate. Her solution describes the probability of spinning an even number or a 3 in the same spin.

• Latricia’s solution is inaccurate. Her solution uses the correct probability of spinning an even number, but it uses to describe the probability of spinning a 3.

• Latricia’s solution is inaccurate. Her solution uses the correct probability of spinning a 3, but it uses to describe the probability of spinning an even number.
