1/2 because of lm guess your saying a standard number cube a cube has 6 side 1-6 and rolling. A number and getting something less then 4 is 3 cause it’s 1,2,3 and the sides are 6 so it’s 3/6
= 0.5 which is 50% half so A:1/2 is the answer

Answer:

A. 1/2

Explanation:

For the question, it says what is the experimental probability of rolling a number less than 4, meaning it is asking for the experimental probability of rolling a 1, 2, or 3. Assuming this is a fair 6-sided dice, the probability of rolling any number is 1/6. The probability of rolling a 1, 2, or 3 is also 1/6. Adding all those the probabilities of 1, 2, and 3 together gets 3/6, which simplifies to 1/2.

Therefore, the experimental probability of rolling a number less than 4 is 1/2.
