Answer:

1/3 or 33.33%

Explanation:

A regular dice has 6 sides each with a single number from 1 to 6. Therefore, there are a total of 6 possible outcomes. Out of all of these only two outcomes are actually less than three and those are the numbers 1 and 2. Meaning, that if the dice were rolled only a single time then the probability of rolling a number less than 3 would be 2/6 or 1/3 (simplified). As a percentage, this probability would be 33.33%
