a. number of shaded parts=4
total number of divisions=8
Probability of the event that pointer lands on other hand=1/2

b. even numbers on the wheels are 2,4,10,8,6,12
so,number of even numbers=6
Probability of the event that pointer lands on other hand=3/4

c. number of parts with number 6=1

so, probability that pointer lands on 6=1/8

d numbers on the wheel are 2,5,7
there are 3 prime numbers.
