	A.	The fraction is four-sixths.
	B.	start fraction 1 over 6 end fraction
	C.	start fraction 2 over 6 end fraction
	D.	 start fraction 5 over 6 end fraction

Bot · Answer

The correct answer is D.

To find the probability of getting a number greater than or equal to 3 when rolling a standard six-sided die, we need to count the number of possible outcomes that satisfy this condition and divide by the total number of possible outcomes.

There are four possible outcomes: 3, 4, 5, and 6. The total number of possible outcomes is six (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6).

So, the probability of getting a number greater than or equal to 3 is 4/6 or 2/3. In fraction form, this is start fraction 2 over 3 end fraction, which is equivalent to start fraction 5 over 6 end fraction when simplified. Therefore, the correct answer is D.
