To determine the probability of spinning a 2 on the spinner, we need information about the spinner's layout, specifically how many sections it has and how many of those sections are labeled with the number 2.

The probability of an event can generally be calculated using the formula:

\[ P(E) = \frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of possible outcomes}}. \]

  1. Total number of possible outcomes: This is the total number of sections on the spinner.
  2. Number of favorable outcomes: This is how many sections are numbered 2.

Without the visual representation of the spinner, I can't provide an exact answer. If you can provide the specific information about the spinner, I'd be glad to help compute the probability!
