You spin the spinner and flip a coin. How many outcomes are possible?
THE SPINNER HAS 5 SIDES
The spinner has 5 sides. Therefore (assuming the sides are all different, which the problem should've noted), there are 5 outcomes when you roll the spinner. When you flip a fair coin (notice the problem should've noted the coin was fair), there are always 2 outcomes (heads/tails). Therefore, by the Multiplication Principle, (look that up if you don't know what it is) the answer is 5 * 2 = 10
Hope this helped!
