To find the probability of rolling a number higher than 3, we first need to determine how many outcomes are higher than 3. In this case, the outcomes higher than 3 are 4, 5, and 6, which are 3 outcomes.
Since there are a total of 6 possible outcomes, the probability of rolling a number higher than 3 is 3 favorable outcomes out of 6 total outcomes, which is 3/6.
Therefore, the answer is B. 3/6.

Apologies for the confusion. Let's reevaluate the probability calculation:
In the given outcomes: 3, 4, 6, 1, 5, 3.
The outcomes higher than 3 are 4, 5, and 6. These are 3 favorable outcomes.
Out of the total 6 outcomes considered in the experiment, 3 outcomes are higher than 3.
The probability of rolling a number higher than 3 is 3 favorable outcomes out of 6 total outcomes, which simplifies to 1/2 or 3/6.
So, the correct answer is indeed B. 3/6. Thank you for pointing out the error.
