On a standard 6 sided die the probability of rolling four is 1/6

This is because there are 6 different numbers on it, and when you roll it you read only the top number. There are 6 to choose from and all 6 are equally probable, so that probability is 1 out of 6 = 0.1666....(a recurring 6) = 16.67% to 4 significant figures

If you roll a fair die four times what is the probability of rolling a four on only the second throw?

The probability of rolling a 4 when you throw once a fair die is: P(4) = 1/6.The probability of not rolling a 4 when you throw once a fair die is: P(NO 4) = 5/6.If you roll a fair die four times, the probability of rolling a four on only the secondthrow is:P(NO 4, 4, NO 4, NO 4) = (5/6)(1/6)(5/6)(5/6) = 0.096450617... ≈ 9.6%


What is the probability of rolling a four on a 6-sided die?

The probability of rolling a four on a 6-sided die is 1 in 6, or approximately 16.67%. Since the die has 6 equally likely outcomes (the numbers 1 to 6), and only one of those outcomes is a four, the probability is 1/6.
