document.write( "The even numbers on a die are 2, 4, and 6.\r\n" );
document.write( "The multiples of 3 are 3 and 6.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So to get an even number or a number that is a multiple of 3, you must get\r\n" );
document.write( "one of these: 2,3,4, or 6.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "That's 4 ways to be successful out of 6 possible rolls of a die.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So the probability is 4 out of 6, or 4/6 which reduces to 2/3.\r\n" );
