Answer: Approximately 0.667

================================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are all the possible outcomes to roll on the number cube: {1,2,3,4,5,6}

Here are the outcomes which are greater than two: {3,4,5,6}

There are 4 outcomes we want (rolling a 3 through 6) out of 6 outcomes total, so we end up with the probability 4/6 = 0.667 which is approximate

In reality, the 6's go on forever in the decimal value, but we can't write the number forever. Round that value in bold however you need to or however your teacher instructs.
