Hi, can you help me answer this homework question?

I don't have a screenshot for this question so If it is unclear, you can ask me about it. This question involves moving up and down in ft (height), using a spinner that is split in 6 pieces, and a normal dice.

Question:

So you have to roll a dice to get a number from 1-6. The number you get is how many spins you get to spin the spinner (Ex. If you roll a 4 from a dice, you get to spin the spinner 4 times). The numbers on the spinner are labelled from 1-6. Depending on the number of spins you get from rolling the dice, if you get a 4, 5, or 6 on the spinner, you move up 1000 ft. If you get a 1, 2, or 3 on the spinner, you move down 1000 ft. What are the theoretical probabilities of getting to 1000 ft 4, 5, or 6 , 2000 ft, 3000 ft, 4000 ft, 5000 ft, and 6000 ft (a 4, 5, or 6 on the spinner)

Helpful Reminder: There is a picture of a board game that shows a chart that starts from 0 ft to 6000 ft. Imagine an airplane ascending and descending in altitude. You must also show the calculations for each theoretical probability. I was told to use a tree diagram for this but I wasn't sure how to go about it.

Did that help? Ask me a question if it is unclear.
