There are 36 possible outcomes when two dice are thrown together (6 outcomes for the first die and 6 outcomes for the second die).
To find the probability of getting a sum of 4, we need to determine how many of the 36 outcomes result in a sum of 4. These outcomes are:
(1,3) , (2,2) , (3,1)
So, there are 3 outcomes that result in a sum of 4.
Therefore, the probability of getting a sum of 4 is:
P(sum = 4) = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes
= 3 / 36
= 1 / 12
Therefore, the probability that the sum will be 4 is 1/12.
