Answer:  Choice C

4/36 = 1/9

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

Explanation:

Circle the second row. This is where each of the red die results are "2"

Then look at the cases when the second die is less than "5". So we could have a 1, 2, 3, or 4 on this second die.

As you can see, there are 4 cases when the first number is a 2 (red) and the second number is less than 5 (white).

We have m = 4 cases we want out of n = 6*6 = 36 cases total.

m/n = 4/36 = 1/9 is our final answer.
