Final answer:

The probability of rolling a number less than 3 on a six-sided die is 1/3, and when rolled 60 times, the expected frequency is 20 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is asking about the probability of rolling a number less than 3 on a six-sided die and wants to understand the expected outcomes when the die is rolled multiple times, in this case, 60 times. A standard six-sided die has equal chances for each number (1-6) to come up on a single roll. The probability of rolling a number less than 3 (which includes numbers 1 and 2) is 2/6 or 1/3 since two out of the six possible outcomes meet the criterion. When the die is rolled 60 times, the expected frequency for rolling a number less than 3 would be the probability multipled by the number of rolls, which is (1/3) * 60 = 20 times.
