Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

1st spin:

1 out of the 5 sections are pink, so the probability of spinning a pink on the 1st spin is 1/5.

2nd spin:

5 out of the 6 sections are not pink, so the probability of spinning a pink on the 2nd is 5/6.

Multiply the probabilities of the two spins to get the answer.

[tex]\frac{1}{5} *\frac{5}{6} =\frac{5}{30} =\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
