A fair number cube is rolled. What is the probability that a number greater than four is rolled? Thank you very much.

A fair number cube is a six sized die which is balanced properly so each side has a 1/6 chance of coming up. The numbers are 1 through 6, so only 5 and 6 are 'greater than 4.' The chance of a number greater than 4 is 2/6 or 1/3.
