Very likely. If you think about it. There are 6 faces on a cube meaning there are 6 numbers. There is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. 5 numbers are less then 6 so your chances are 5/6

Likely

There are six outcomes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6
Numbers less than 6, are 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, so the chance to roll a number less than 6 is 5/6 which has a probability of likely as there are more chances to roll a number less than six
