Answer:

1/2

Explanation:

There are 2 numbers less than 3. (1 and 2) and one 6 on a dice. Therefore there is a 3 out of 6 chance of rolling one of these 3 numbers (1, 2, and 6). This can be represented as 3/6 which would simplify to 1/2 or 50%.

It can also be found this way...

Probability = Number of desired outcomes ÷ number of possible outcomes. Therefore 3 ÷ 6 = 0.5 which is equal to 50% or 1/2.

I hope you choose my answer so you do well on your assignment! I've gotten an A in math every year :)
