There are 6 total numbers in a die. There are 4 numbers less than 5.

Probability of rolling less than 5 would be 4/6, which reduces to 2/3

There are 4 letters on the spinner, the probability of getting R would be 1/4.

Probability of both = 2/3 x 1/4 = 2/12 which reduces to 1/6

The answer is 1/6
