The probability of spinning orange on the first spin is 1/4, as there are 4 equally likely outcomes and only 1 of them is orange.
The probability of spinning orange on the second spin is also 1/4, as the spinner is spun independently each time and the probability does not change.
To find the probability of both events happening, we multiply the probabilities together:
(1/4) * (1/4) = 1/16
Therefore, the probability of spinning orange on both spins is 1/16.
The spinner is spun twice. What is the probability of spinning orange (dots) on both spins? Express your answer as a simplified fraction.
