Answer:

The probability of rolling a number less than 3 (so, 1 or 2) is 2 out of 6, or 1/3. The odds are 4 to 2 against, or 2 to 1 against.

Explanation:

If so, there are two numbers less than 3: 1 and 2. There are 6 total possible results, so the probability of rolling a number less than 3 is 26 or 13 or 0.3333
