A Correct answer
Explanation

A die has 6 faces {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. Numbers lesser than 4 are {1, 2, 3}. Probability = 3/6 = 1/2.

AI explanation

When a die is rolled, the total number of possible outcomes is 6. The outcomes where the number is lesser than 4 are 1, 2, and 3, which provides 3 favorable outcomes. Using the classical probability formula, the probability is 3 divided by 6, which simplifies to 1/2.
