There is a 4 in 6 (or 2 in 3) probability of rolling a number less than a five on a standard number cube.
Here are the odds in craps: 7 vs. 6 Odds: 6 to 5 7 vs. 5 Odds: 6 to 4 or 3 to 2 7 vs. 4 Odds: 6 to 3 or 2 to 1 7 vs. 3 Odds: 6 to 2 or 3 to 1 7 vs. 2 Odds: 6 to 1
The odds are 1:3. The probability is 1/4 or 25%.
The odds of rolling any number in one roll of one die is 1 in 1. The odds of rolling the same number in one roll of one die is 1 in 6. Each die is unrelated, so the odds of rolling a pair using two dice in one roll is 1 in 1 times 1 in 6, or 1 in 6.Now, look at the second pair of dice. The odds of rolling any number other than a number on the first pair is 5 in 6. The odds of rolling the same number in one roll of one die is 1 in 6. Each die is unrelated, so the odds of rolling a pair using two dice in one roll, not the pair in the first roll is 5 in 6 times 1 in 6, or 5 in 36.Now, look at the third pair of dice. The odds of rolling any number other than a number on the first two pairs is 4 in 6. The odds of rolling the same number in one roll of one die is 1 in 6. Each die is unrelated, so the odds of rolling a pair using two dice in one roll, not one of the first two pairs is 4 in 6 times 1 in 6, or 4 in 36.To compute the total odds of rolling three pairs of numbers using 6 dice, simply multiply these odds together. That is 1 in 6 times 5 in 36 times 4 in 36, or 30 in 7776. Reducing that to lowest common fraction, you get 5 in 1296.(This calculation assumes that the three pairs are different. If two or three of the pairs are allowed to be the same, the computation is different.)

if you rollid a die once the odds of getting less than four would be 3/6 or 50%.
4/6 = 2/3
There are 6 numbers on a die. 3 of those are less than 4 (i.e. 1, 2 & 3). The probability is therefore 3/6 = 1/2.
Since there are six sides on a die, the odds of rolling a 4, or any digit for that matter is 1/6
Assuming you're using 6-sided dice, The probability of rolling less than 4 on one die is 1/2. To roll 3 dice and get less than 4 on 2 (and only 2) of them is 3/8.
4/6 or 2/3
The probability of rolling a 3 on a die are 1/6. Since each roll is an independent event, the probability of rolling a 3 4 times in a row is (1/6)4 or 1/1296.The odds of something happening are the chances of it happening vs. the chances of it not happening. The chance of not rolling a 3 4 times in a row is 1-(1/1296) or 1295/1296.Therefore the odds are 1:1295
It is not clear whether the question is for "less than 4" or "greater than 4".
