1/3 because 3 and 4 is 2/6 of the dice and if you simplify that you get 1/3

Answer:

1/3

Explanation:

there are 6 sides to a die : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

as one can interpret, 3 & 4 take up 2 parts of the 6 possible options

each result has equal oppurtunity to occur

so for 3 or 4 to be rolled, there is a 2/6 chance, or 1/3 when simplified
