The 6 sides of the die are numbered 1,2,3,4,5,6
There are 3 odd and 3 even numbers
probability of an odd number on 1st roll is

When you want A AND B probabilities, you multiply
the events A and B
The number less than 3 are 1,2, so the probability is

And the probability of getting both these events is
