Step-by-step explanation:

a)

well, logically, it must be M, 2

b)

this is a combined probability for one single pair of possible outcomes.

there are 15 pairs, all with the same probability.

so, P(Q, 4) = number of desired outcomes / number of possible outcomes = 1/15

as combined probability we can also say the probability to get 4 on one wheel is 1/5, and the probabilty to get Q on the other wheel is 1/3

so, P(Q, 4) = 1/3 × 1/5 = 1/15
