#1//2#

Explanation:

Consider all the possible outcomes of rolling a die: we can get either #1,2,3,4,5,# or #6#.

Of these, #1,3,# and #5# are odd.

#3# of the #6# total outcomes are odd. Each outcome has the same probability of being rolled.

Thus the probability is #3//6#, which simplified is #1//2#.
