Probability

[jman15]

This problem in general is giving me trouble.


Janet had trouble choosing outfits, so she made spinners to randomly select outfits. Based on the spinners, what is th e probability that she wears a hat with boots?

The first spinner has 3 options: scarf, hat, and pin. Each one is a 1/3 chance. The next spinner also has 3 options: tall boots (50%), Black sandals (33%) and short boots (1/6)



PLEASE HELP
