Two spinners that have sections numbered 1 through 5 are spun at the same time. Then, the numbers are added together. What is the total number of possible sums?

The smallest sum is 1 + 1 = 2, and the largest is 5 + 5 = 10. Every whole-number sum from 2 through 10 is possible, so there are 10 − 2 + 1 = 9 possible sums. The correct choice is 9.
