Correct Answer:
Option D —
2/3
When a standard six-sided die is thrown, there are six possible outcomes in total: one, two, three, four, five, and six.
The outcomes that are three or greater than three are three, four, five, and six. This means there are four favorable outcomes.
To find the probability, you divide the number of favorable outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes. This gives four out of six, which simplifies to two thirds.
Therefore, the probability is two thirds, which corresponds to option D.
