What are the ODDS of rolling a number greater than 3 on a six-sided die?

(Odds, NOT probability)

50% or 1:2. It comes from 3:6 because you have 3 number greater than 3.

the odds are defined as the probability it will occur divided by the odds it won’t. the probability it will is 3:6 probability it won’t is 3:6 decide those to get 1:2
