To determine the probability of the spinner landing on a 3, we first need to calculate the total number of possible outcomes, which is the sum of the number of 1s, 2s, and 3s on the spinner.

Total possible outcomes = 3 (2s) + 3 (1s) + 2 (3s) = 8

Next, we calculate the number of favorable outcomes, which is the number of 3s on the spinner.

Number of favorable outcomes = 2 (3s)

Now we can calculate the probability:

Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Total possible outcomes
Probability = 2 / 8
Probability = 1/4

Therefore, the probability of the spinner landing on a 3 is:
- Simplified fraction: 1/4
- Decimal: 0.25
- Percent: 25%
