You can put this solution on YOUR website! Assuming that this is the usual "six-sided die", there are 3 values which are "less than 4".
There are also 2 values which are even, but not "less than 4".
This means that there are a total of 5 values which will meet one of the two criteria: {1, 2, 3, 4, 6}.
The probability is then:
P(less than 4, or even) = number of outcomes which are "less than 4" or "even" / total number of outcomes
P(less than 4, or even) = 5/6

A single die is rolled. Find the probability of rolling a number less than 4 or an even number.
Numbers < 4: 3 (1,2,3)
Even numbers: 3 (2, 4, 6)
