Answer 2

Answer: The probability of landing on yellow is less than the probability of landing on blue.

Explanation:

There are 2 purple sections, 2 yellow sections, 3 blue sections, and 1 orange section.

Since there are fewer yellow sections than blue sections, the probability of landing on yellow is less than the probability of landing on blue.
