If there are four colors on a spinner, then the probability of spinning one particular color is 1 in 4, or 0.25. Also, the probability of spinning one of two particular colors is 2 in 4, or 0.5. Combining these two "unrelated" events simply requires multiplication. The probability, then, of spinning one particular color on one spin, and then spinning one of two particular colors on the next spin is (1 in 4) times (2 in 4), or 2 in 16, or 0.125.
The probability of blue, when there are 4 blue, 6 yellow, and 3 red, is 4 is 13.
Assuming the red and blue spinner has an equal number of red and blue spots, the odds of spinning blue is 50%. On the other spinner, the odds of an odd number is 67%. Combined, the odds of spinning blue and an odd number is 33%. (50% times 67%)
The probability of selecting 4 red marbles or 5 blue marbles depends on how many marbles there are altogether, and how many of the total number of marbles are red and how many are blue.
