Answer:

P (4) = 1/6

Explanation:

The probability can be found by creating a fraction. The numerator is the number of favorable outcomes and the denominator is the total number of outcomes.

P (4) = sides with a 4 / total sides

The standard dice has 6 sides numbered 1 through 6.

P (4) = sides with a 4/ 6

Only one side on the cube has a 4.

P (4) = 1/6

This fraction cannot be simplified further, so it is our final answer.

The probability of rolling a 4 on a standard dice is 1/6
