<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option: B is the correct answer.

The probabilities are equal.

( Since, probability of landing on 1 and on 4 are equal i.e. 1/8 )

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The spinner is divided into two sizes such that the larger wedges are twice the size of the smaller ones.

The numbers that come on the smaller wedge are: 1,3,4 and 6

and those who come on the large wedge are: 2 and 5

If we divide the wedge which ere twice into equal sections then the total number of sections are:

8

We know that the probability of an event is defined as the ratio of number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes.

( Since 1 is comprised of just one section out of total 8 sections)

Similarly,

( Since 2 is comprised of two sections out of total 8 sections)

( Since 3 is comprised of just one section out of total 8 sections)

Similarly,
