2004 AMC 8 Problem 21
Spinners A and B are spun. On each spinner, the arrow is equally likely to land on each number. What is the probability that the product of the two spinners' numbers is even?
![[asy] pair A=(0,0); pair B=(3,0); draw(Circle(A,1)); draw(Circle(B,1)); draw((-1,0)--(1,0)); draw((0,1)--(0,-1)); draw((3,0)--(3,1)); draw((3+sqrt(3)/2,-.5)--(3,0)); draw((3,0)--(3-sqrt(3)/2,-.5)); label("$A$",(-1,1)); label("$B$",(2,1)); label("$1$",(-.4,.4)); label("$2$",(.4,.4)); label("$3$",(.4,-.4)); label("$4$",(-.4,-.4)); label("$1$",(2.6,.4)); label("$2$",(3.4,.4)); label("$3$",(3,-.5)); [/asy]](/static/aops/2b8c0e9de9eb3c68e3938fd3467803e6bbb24ef3.png)
