Answer:

5/6

Explanation:

I got 5/6 because every number matches the conditions set except for two. If Glenn rolls a 1, it works because it is an odd number. If Glenn rolls a 2 it doesn't work because it's not an odd number and its not greater than 2. If Glenn rolls a 3 it works because 3 is an odd number and is greater than two, and every number after three will also work, because they are all greater than two. This way, the only number that will not match the conditions is 2, so the answer is 5/6, or 83.(3)%
