Final answer:

The probability of not rolling a 2 or 3 on a number cube is 2/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability of not rolling a 2 or 3 on a number cube, we need to determine the number of outcomes that meet this condition and divide it by the total number of possible outcomes.

The number of outcomes that are not 2 or 3 is 4 (1, 4, 5, 6), while the total number of possible outcomes is 6. Therefore, the probability of not rolling a 2 or 3 is 4/6, which simplifies to 2/3. Hence, the correct answer is option C) 2/3.
