Here are all the possible outcomes: 1,2,3,4,5,6

Here are the outcomes where we get a 4 or an odd number: 1,3,4,5

There are 4 ways to get a four or an odd number out of 6 total. So the probability is 4/6 = 2/3

Probability as a fraction = 2/3
Probability in decimal form = 0.667 (approximate)
Probability in percent form = 66.7% (approximate)
