Explanation:

Step1: Analyze probability of each option

• For the first option: The probability of getting 1 or 2 out of 1 - 3 is $\frac{2}{3}

eq0.5$.

• For the second option: The probability of getting tails when flipping a coin is $\frac{1}{2} = 0.5$.
• For the third option: The probability of getting a 6 out of 1 - 6 is $\frac{1}{6}

eq0.5$.
