Answer:

2/9 is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the spinner is numbered 2, 4 and 5

The general formula for probability :

P(A) = n(A) / n(S)

n(S) is the number of whole states occur in two spins which is 3 × 3 = 9

n(A) is the event that Rico will get a product of 20.

n(A) = 2   ∵ 4 × 5 and 5 × 4 will bring the product 20.

Therefor, the probability that Rico will get a product of 20 when Rico spins the spinner twice will be:

P(A) = n(A) / n(S)

       = 2/9

Therefore, 2/9 is the correct option.
