We are given a six-sided die and we are asked to determine the probability of getting a number less than 3. To do that, let's remember that the probability is defined as the quotient between the number of desired outcomes and the total number of outcomes. Since there are 2 number in the die that are less than 3 (1, 2) there are 2 possible desired outcomes and since the die has 6 sides, there are 6 possible outcomes, therefore, the probability is:
