There are three numbers less than 4 on a standard number cube (1, 2, and 3), out of a total of six possible outcomes.
Therefore, the probability of rolling a number less than 4 is 3/6, which simplifies to 1/2.
So, the answer is 1/2.
Therefore, the probability of rolling a number less than 4 is 3/6, which simplifies to 1/2.
So, the answer is 1/2.
