Answer:

Explanation:

There are 2 outcomes out of a total of 6 outcomes that are 3 or 6, so there are 2 favorable outcomes, and 6 − 2 = 4 unfavorable outcomes.

The odds of rolling either a 3 or a 6 are 2:4.

Both numbers are divisible by 2,

So this ratio can be simplified to 1:2 which is the correct answer
