Answer:

Dice 1: 2/6

Dice 2: 2/6

Explanation:

Both dies are going to have a probability of 2/6 because for each number within the greater than less than category, the die only have 6 sides, and 6 numbers. There are only 2 numbers less than 3, and 2 numbers greater than 3. Thus, the solution is two-sixths.
