Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The possible outcomes for rolling two dice and getting a sum of 4 are: (1,3), (2,2), and (3,1). Since there are a total of 36 possible outcomes when rolling two dice (6 outcomes for the first die multiplied by 6 outcomes for the second die), the probability is $\frac{3}{36} = \frac{1}{12}$.
