The probability of the spinner landing on a yellow section can be calculated by dividing the number of yellow sections by the total number of sections.
There are 2 yellow sections out of a total of 10 sections.
So, the probability of the spinner landing on a yellow section is 2/10.
Simplifying this fraction, we get 1/5.
Therefore, the answer is B. one-fifth.
