Factors could be referred to as numbers which divides a certain number without leaving a remainder.

Factor of 25 are ; 1, 5 25

The spinner has 5 faces

Number of faces which is a factor of 25 = 2 ( 1 and 5)

Therefore, probability of getting a factor of 25:

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(getting a factor of 25) = 2 / 5
