Answer:

Even Number - 3/6 or 1/2

Number less than 5- 4/6 or 2/3

Explanation:

Even Number- There are 3 even numbers on a die (2, 4, and 6) and its 6 number in total on a die o its 3/6 or 1/2.

Number Less Than 5 - For a number LESS than 5 (1, 2, 3, and 4) and its 6 numbers on the die in total so its 4/6 or 2/3.

The probability of rolling an even number is three times (2,4,6) and the probability of rolling a number less than 5 is 4 times (1,2,3,4)

Not sure if I'm right or not but I hope this helps :)
