You roll a standard number cube. Find P(number less than 3).

a. 1/3
b. 2/3
c. 3/2
d. 5/6

1 2 3 4 5 6

* *
2/6 = 1/3

2/6

Simplify to fit your answer choices.

To find the probability of getting a number less than 3 when rolling a standard number cube, you need to determine how many outcomes satisfy the condition and divide it by the total number of possible outcomes.

In this case, the numbers less than 3 on a standard number cube are 1 and 2. These are two possible outcomes.

On a standard number cube, there are six possible outcomes, which are the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.

So, the probability of getting a number less than 3 is 2 out of 6, which can be simplified to 1/3.

Therefore, the answer is (a) 1/3.
